LOOKBOOK // <strong>2018</strong>

<strong>2018</strong> COLLECTION:<br />

BEQUEST<br />

We are pleased to present the<br />

newest collection from the <strong>Briar</strong><br />

<strong>Hill</strong> <strong>Designs</strong> Studio: Bequest.<br />

This collection was inspired by<br />

dishes, trinkets and treasures<br />

passed down from generation to<br />

generation. A bequest is something<br />

given, left by will or transmitted<br />

from the past; curios, antiques and<br />

heirlooms found in a hope chest.<br />

Twenty blue and white prints<br />

compose the Bequest line. With a<br />

perfect blend of dark and light<br />

values, this quilt friendly collection<br />

makes any sewing project a breeze!

NICE TO MEET YOU<br />

<strong>Briar</strong> <strong>Hill</strong> <strong>Designs</strong> was born out of a beautiful synergic<br />

friendship between two self-proclaimed fabric lovers,<br />

Caverly Smith and Julia Wentzell. After months of<br />

dreaming, designing, painting and planning, Caverly and<br />

Julia transformed their vision into reality.<br />

Caverly Smith brings her fine art background to the team<br />

having earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Illustration from<br />

Sheridan College in Ontario, Canada. Her speciality<br />

includes oil painting with palette knife techniques, watercolour,<br />

line-and-wash, and whimsical illustration, which she<br />

considers her favourite medium.<br />

Julia Wentzell is a lifelong sewing enthusiast with over 25<br />

years of experience. Julia earned her diploma in Costume<br />

Studies from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia,<br />

Canada, where she honed her skills in pattern making,<br />

fashion apparel, tailoring and 18th century apparel<br />

construction. After trying her hand at quilt making, Julia<br />

was hooked, and was soon sewing quilts of her own design<br />

and style, creating a fresh take on traditional patchwork.
