Bridle and Reins

[TomE]

A little bit of Hermann Oak bridle leather, and a lot of thread.

Very nice indeed.

Thank you.  Staying focused on halters, bridles, and reins until I master these items.   Thinking about future projects to use leftover shoulders and bellies of 9-11 oz bridle leather sides.

Nice work still using the pop stitch i see. This side of the pond Bridle Butts and Bridle Backs will have their bellies trimmed off not really used in the Saddlery industry over here. But have had some cheap Saddle Skirting from Tandy for something i was trying at the time, used the belly for fillers and liners for things it worked okay. The Shoulders can be used for Foal slips and Foal Head Collars and for Everyday Head Collars on younger Horses that don't don't need to be to fancy as long as you have the weight there for strength should be okay its also good for repairs.

Hope this helps

Thanks, @jcuk.  Foal slips seem likely since we’re in the business of producing foals. Still adding the side stitch to buckle turns and placing the fixed loop tight against the turn. I am trainable.

Yes should have noticed that too glass or two of wine is the blame for that.
