Elizabeth Anyaa is a talented and charming woman who has won the Fashion Group International Award. Tami and I visited her studio in Dallas while brainstorming with the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing.
Anyaa grew up in Sierra Leone and Ghana, and studied textile design at The Rovaniemi Institute of Industrial Art in Rovaniemi, Finland, where she earned her degree in Fine Arts. She expresses her artistic vision in weaving, felting and surface design - producing unique clothes as well as textiles for the home. She weaves metals and other unusual textures into her textiles.
Her textiles and fashions have appeared in national magazines. Seeing those articles, however, won't give you the feel of these wonderful materials - and you'd miss meeting this extraordinary lady.
Thanks, Liz, for adding this highlight to our recent trip to Dallas

Hi Sharon, Elizabeth's textiles and clothes look very interesting and unique.
Shirley - and she's not SO far away from you.
