Saddle in Progress

Today I worked on a new jumping saddle. I didn't like my old pattern so I tweaked it a little bit by adding a shorter and rounder seat and longer girth.



For the girth I wanted to try and make it look more detailed so I followed the tutorial by Jennifer from Braymare Custom Saddlery. If you don't already, I really recommend taking a look at her blog, she's such a talented tackmaker and I want to be just like her when I grow up!


Here's how it came out. I think that I'm going to make another one with neater edges and stitches.


 I know I'm going off topic but I carved a pumpkin for Halloween! I did it a few days after Halloween because we went camping.


Carving the pumpkin was harder then expected but my X- acto knife skills came in handy! 


Here is the final result. This was my first jack-o-lantern and it surprised my mom and me how well it came out! Right now as I'm typing I can hear my mom cutting the pumpkin for pumpkin stew.
