I've had a boring navy blue quarter sheet sitting around for years. It's been used maybe twice. But with Princess being half naked, I finally have a use for it! Except... boring navy blue quarter sheet? Yuck. So I improved it....
Much better!
"Do I look fabulous, Mom?"
If he looks directly at his reflection, he'll be blinded by the awesomeness.
In a fit of frenzy, I not only improved the quarter sheet, I also finished a saddle pad that I started making... um, a little while ago... *coughMarchcough*
I think it was worth the wait:
I picked the fabric because it's pretty, but also because I can use it on all three of my horses if I want (even though I only ride one....)--pink for Princess, blue for The Mare, and lime green for the old man.
Another boarder came out while I was riding, so I roped her into videoing us. River looks pretty good, but sweet mother of mercy I'm terrible. Heels down? Why bother! On the bright side, if a fence pops up in front of us, I'm already in a half seat!
Video stills...
Stretch!
And the video..
I'm going to have to make sure to put boots or polos on him--3 white legs and 1 chestnut leg trick the eye and make him look off. I swear he's not!!
Gah, I wish I was crafty like you! Or at least knew how to use a sewing machine. Or owned a sewing machine. Or had enough money to make you make me pads.

ReplyDeleteOr really any of those options.
Those are awesome. My next sewing project is a quarter sheet and I'm pretty pumped/nervous out it! :)
