Hey
If you want to make a show cover or 1/4 sheet etc, take yur stable/paddock rug and use that as a pattern. You can adjust things eg length. and its great because you know it will fit your horse! o and you can do the same with saddle cloths.

BYE!

Showjumper (Dolly's mom) made some rope halters and bridles a while back. I went crazy after seeing them and so did everyone else! There were orders going to her left and right. I think I'd still like to make one myself. :D
