Here are some photos from the exhibition :-)
Guests looking at my work and reading the tiny stories with each picture.
Me and my pictures
Me and Jóhanna outside Eyrarkot. Jóhanna is a Heathen priestess and held a speach about the Old Nordic Faith, Ásatrú and the people who first settled in Iceland and the area around Kjós. They were both Heathen and Christian and all lived together in harmony. The world can learn from that today...
This is Bergþóra and me. Bergþóra owns and runs the guesthouse and eshibition room at Eyrarkot. She has made an old house into a wonderful warm and welcoming guesthouse for 10 people in this peaceful countryside, just 40 minutes north of Reykjavík. She offers breakfast and rents out the salon where we had the exhibition. If you ever want to come to Iceland and stay in the countryside, I´ll get you in touch with Bergþóra, she is the nicest person you can imagine.
More guests looking and reading.
Holtasóley or Mountain Avens is the Icelandic national flower. It grows everywhere, even high up in the mountains. The flower is small but I feel it represents the smiles of Mother Nature. She smiles to us, do we see it?

Rags, this is delightful! Since I am a permanent newbie to stitching, I'm so impressed with creativity like yours. It will be fun to see more of your works.
Thank you :-) we are all newbies, there are so many things to learn. Hope to see you here again :-)
Hello From Michigan, I love the your artist impression of your Mountain flower.It is beautiful. It sorta looks like the Edelweiss you find in the Alps. Lovely new blog. I enjoyed all the photos. Hugs Judy from Sunny Michigan
