Rug workshop with the ladies from Holland. Leisbeth and Ann-Margot spent 3 days working on their Osman felt rugs here at Ikonium Studio. The rugs were initially kicked usng traditional Turkish method out in our neighborhood park with the Aya Sofia as a backdrop. The girls wee alot of fun, laughng is a good way to work through the strenuous part of making the felt. Delicious lunches made by Mehmet were a treat as always and the girls later confessed that everything else they ate while here paled in comparison!!Afiyet olsun!
