Skier in the Mountains
« on: January 06, 2012, 11:06:10 pm »
As I have said before I am a cutter, not a designer but Sometimes I can't find what I would like to have.  This is one of those times.  I have looked on all the pattern places that I thought would have it and no luck, including yours Charlie.
What I would like to have for a Christmas present for next year is a scene that has one or more skiers in the mountains with trees and,of course, snow.  But the main focus of the pattern is not the skiers but the view, you know, the mountains and trees.  Not a simple one and anything from 11X14 up.
As always, I appreciate your help.  :)

Sorry, guess it was too much of a challenge without a picture.  I will check the ski magazine and find a picture to help.  Later:(

Here is a photo my Bride took of the skier, her son, a few year ago.  It is a little simple but could be the basis for a great pattern.  Maybe a few more tree, and rocks, etc.  Hope it helps.

Great pattern.  I might try to tackle that project for my sister who moved from the desert to the high mountains just so she could ski more.

Sorry Paul,  I meant to type "Paul" in earlier Post, but somehow managed to type "Pete"  (no offence Pete)
