I love Laurel Burch designs which I first came across in San Francisco & San Diego in the v early 2000’s. I bought scarves, T shirts, greetings cards, calendars, mugs etc. I have acquired some vintage fabric pieces now, and more recently purchased some of the new lines being revived by her daughter.

Amazing designer and artist, and one I’d never heard of before. Thank you for introducing her to us, and so glad her designs will be being produced again.

I wasn’t a fan, purely because I didn’t know of her; but I am now, thank you!

I love Laurels cat designs. I’ve got one of her handbags and was lucky enough to find a fabric panel in the charity shop earlier this year.

Very interesting Corinne – I’m definitely going to give your method a try!

I’ve not seen this method before. I’ve seen where you turn the edge over the paper, and then struggle to release the paper after sewing the applique down. I shall be giving this method a try. Thanks

Very neat and tidy. I will definitely be giving this a go. Thanks Corinne.

This is a great post Jane, thank you so much for highlighting all the behind-the-scenes work that goes into planning and releasing a BOM. My Sewmotion Curve Motion Medallion is a wonderful 16-month EPP journey for lovers of hand sewing, it took many many hours to put it all together but it was worth it!

Looking forward to seeing this quilt Carol!

I love half-square triangles – so versatile!
