I have her some of her fabrics and used the blenders in quilts. I have one of her books and several tops and bags. I used to live in the SF Bay Area, where the warehouse used to be and go to the annual warehouse sales (more than 10 years ago) to buy her jewelry and bags.
She was an interesting person. She lived in the SF area.

I am the one who bought this kit on Ebay, with my Christmas money. It will be a college graduation present 2013 for my oldest grandaughter. She is going on to vetenierian med school, and she fell in love with the panel earlier this fall. I wish it cost less, but she is worth it. The kit has over 9 yards, plus the panel, so price wise is was doable.
I love Laurel Burch, especially the Oceans Song pieces. I've been buying some pieces from ebay to keep for a future project. Just this week, the Oceans Song quilt kit, unopened and brand new, was listed. It went for $101.57. I wish it could have been me to buy it. But just no way right now. And I'm only a beginner. Maybe I should finish a few pieces before spending $100 on a kit I may never use. But even if I didn't use it, I would love looking at the fabrics.

Where can I buy her earrings? I just ordered a tote from the Smithsonian with her blue cats. I buy everything I can of hers. I didn't know she any kind of books.

Me, too. I have one pair of her earrings, multi-color that go with almost everything. People always ask me about them. it's amazing how many people in our area have never heard of her.

There is a website devoted to Laurel Burch and her designs. There is also a bio on the website and Laurel Burch items for sale. Google Laurel Burch and I am sure you will find it. I found it some time ago so I don't remember the acutal website. I think it is the website for the company that now produces her items.

Love love love her. I have a quick made from her aristocratic cat fabric on my bed right now and have a celestial quilt I also made with her stuff. I made up the cat quilt myself and got the celestial quilt out of a magazine and sort of "tweeked it" I have no real experience with her books but I have two handbags and carryalls with her fabric so I'm a lover.

I have quite a bit of her fabric and 3 quilt books. I've never made any of the quilts in the books but I love getting out the books and reading them and enjoy all the photos and ideas. I actualy have not cut very much of the fabric but I did make a diaper bag out of her jungle print a couple of years ago.
