Hi everyone,
So this blog has kind of morphed from street fashion to documenting my work to snippets of inspiration. I started a new blog that is all about what is inspiring me at the moment (http://annahartturner.tumblr.com/), and I hope to launch my own website or portfolio soon that solely focuses on my work. I’ll keep you posted, and in the meantime, enjoy my past works on the blog and you’ll see more from me soon! 😉

“Dans un atelier, c’est le moment qui parle, & non l’Artiste.”
(In a studio, it’s the moment that speaks, and not the artist)
Found: Prospectus: Encylopédie, from my French class.
“By making quilts and giving them away- it’s like almost giving away part of yourself, because you’re putting a lot of your energy and creative thoughts into it. I think it really fits into our whole culture…You can’t compare it to going to the store and buying a gift and giving it to somebody else. The quilts sometimes might take you two or three years of your time, time that you really don’t have, but you make that time, because you love that person and you want to make something special for him.” –Lydia Whirlwind Soldier (Sioux), 1993.
Found: To Honor and Comfort: Native Quilting Traditions through my Textiles of the Americas class. These are just the words to describe how I feel when I make something for someone as a gift.
“Attack life, it’s going to kill you anyways”
Found: Women’s bathroom stall on the first floor of College Library.
“Like the tiger indigenous to Sumatra, this coffee is big, bold, unpredictable and utterly captivating”
Found: Starbucks Sumatra coffee bag. Who knew coffee could be so exciting?
Impression Le Reveillon
by Oscar Wilde
The sky is laced with fitul red
The circling mists and shadows flee
The dawn is rising from the sea
Like a white lady from her bed
And jagged broken arrows fall
Athwart the feathers of the night
And a long wave of yellow light
Breaks silently on tower and hall,
And spreading wide across the wold
Wakes into flight some fluttering bird,
And all the chestnut tops are stirred,
And all the branches streaked with gold.
Found: Online I think. I love the imagery.
All students in their third year of the Textile and Apparel Design Program submit a portfolio for portfolio review. Portfolio Review (back in November) was a night of friends, food, and of course, fashion. It was great to see everyone’s work, and to show my friends and family what us TAD (Textile and Apparel Design) kids do. I was also excited to receive portfolio of distinction. My parents came and we went out to eat after wards at my favorite Chinese restaurant, Fu Gu. (Rufan introduced it to me, and I love it.) Elena and Adam came later and we saw Harry Potter 7 on Imax! It was a really nice night- a great way to celebrate everyone’s hard work. So, without further ado, here is my first portfolio. Many thanks to my photographers, Luke Burke and Eric Gaurkee, and my models Nathalie, Kelly, and Miki.
