Danish Felt Artist Kirsten Lang Visit to my Home Studio









I had a lovely Sunday morning this weekend.  Kirsten Lang a Danish Felt Artist and her family visited my home studio.  We had met when I was exhibiting at the Knit and Stitch Show at Alexandra Palace last year and she said if she visited her friend in Manchester she would make a trip to see me and she was true to her word.



It occurred to me how wonderful it is to share creative ideas with fellow artists who love to express themselves creatively.  She is a lovely person and very interesting and I was so pleased she liked my work.



The sun was shining I sold some work and even the hens got in on the act!
