Ski ski ski... away...


This cap is for my crazy ski bum of a friend. She saw the caps that I painted previously and requested a ski themed one. I think this will look darn cute on her.  :)






This is my first women's cap too. I quickly realized that I dont have the same kind of flat surface as the men's hats too. It was a bit of a challenge getting the shapes right on hat since the fabric is not as tight. I decided to keep it simple with a basic ski scene - snow, trees, and a happy skier.








First I did the snow, then added some trees to bring a sense of depth to the picture. Don't miss the snow on the trees. They look so pretty with the snow on them.
 



















Then came the happy skier. The biggest challenge was to keep the edges clean and lines straight. Since the fabric is not taught it was more difficult than I thought it would be. This was a perfect project for a slow weekend. I hope my friend likes it as much as I do. :)
