Where Kindred Spirits Connect

Join celebrated artist Laurel Burch in the infinite realm of her imagination, where myths come alive and kindred spirits connect. Laurel’s graphic signature style translates beautifully into quilts you’ll love making for yourself and for others.

  • 12 projects including fun designs like Mariah Moonbeam and Friend, Feline Fairies, Folkloric Flutter-bye, and Mythical Dogs
  • Use all your favorite techniques — appliqué, embroidery, fabric painting, stamping, and more — or try fusible appliqué for a fast finish!
  • Secrets and shortcuts for creating the right look with tips on fabric choices, paint, and embellishing techniques

"Laurel's artwork combined with exciting fabrics and a variety of simple embellishment techniques make these quilts a festival of fun to create!" —Barbara Baker and Jeri Boe, — (Barbara and Jeri made Dream — the Secret Garden)

"Animal by animal, flower by flower, making quilts Kindred Creatures was a fun journey in coordinating fabrics and threads that would be just right in translating Laurel's vision to fabric art. It was a wonderful "discovery" experience right down to experimenting with different options and stitches to recreate the original artwork. The hardest part of bringing her designs to life was having to force myself to finally stop and say "its done." There was always another little detail that was fun to create.

—Nancy Odom, Quilt Designer, Author, Teacher, Timid Thimble Creation
(Nancy made Kindred Creatures and Feline Fairies)
