TWH Pictures

If this set doesn't sell, it's joining my show string!

Sold!

Studio Update: November 11

The Walker set is done!

You guys were right, blue is definitely the right choice for the browband. Love it.

These are just some quick 'n dirty shots (with super sloppily tacked up tack) to get you the general idea- Tomorrow I'll get some pretty outdoor pics!

As distracting as my hand is, it actually really effectively shows how bitty this set is. Teensy!

That's actually the most common comment I get when customers receive their tack: "It's so small!"

I take it as a compliment!

Studio Update: November 9

There are only so many hunter sets a girl can make before she needs to try something a little different. It's been at least two years since my last TWH set, so this was a fun little detour!

I managed to see the bridle through the worst of its adolescence (soooo many keepers on this guy), but the saddle is presenting more of a challenge. 90% of my English saddles use the same basic pattern pieces, but cutbacks have a bit of a different shape and therefore required a totally new pattern set. 

It doesn't look like much, but these are the resulting pieces from a new tree and flap design that took a heck of a lot of tinkering. The skirt is turning out to be the most challenging (and frustrating!), but I think I have a pattern I can work with to make something work tomorrow. Hopefully.

Today I also did a bunch of lace prep....

...and dyeing, so I have some fun colors to play with.

I'm admittedly totally out of my depth when it comes to TWH tack, but colorful browbands seem to be a norm. What do you guys think? Red? Blue? I'd love to hear some input.

And lastly, tomorrow evening I'm picking the halter winners! Exciting!
