Good afternoon hivians, it actually Afternoon in where I base, Nigeria precisely and beautiful Monday it is ,the weather is just like the colour of a television, Okay, its been long time I made a Post, so I woke up this Morning with an intention to give an illustrations of a well known Cap in Nigeria Called the awolowo Cap,also known as Ebuka Cap. My recent work
This is the Fabric we 'd be making use of, its called ashioke,
And this is the net we'd be making use of,the strong one is Advisable not the soft one, Only then you can achieved an Impeccable finishing.
The foam is haftinch and haft inch it most be .
And here's the Lagos Mako we will be Using, at times I make use of Fiber,all base on what you want To Achieve, I go with the flow cause I need something Different this time .
the Depth am making use of is 22 so I added half inch for the gumming allowance, and the width in Awolowo cap is 2.5 inch fixed, unless you're masking for kids, you use 2inch .
use the same method applied on the Mako on your fabric ,but the width should exceed with 3inches,then you apply glue
I miss some part of the illustration, Once you're done Encasing the Mako, place it on top of you Foam and Add haft inches round then you Cut it Off ,apply the same method on the Fabric as well, once you done, apply glue on the Fabric and Foam and leave it for a minute to dry, once it dearth you Gum it together,
place your Net on the wrong side ,then apply Glue on top of the Net as shown in the image below
Use the back of your scissors to scrub it till it Get puffy as shown in the image, the process meant as well Help the net Gummed well on the surface
Trim the net offcut off then apply Glue at the Edge,let it dry then pin point it in to get a shape edge as seeen on the image
Place it onto of its Rim
