Members Traveller Posted June 25, 2009 Members Report Posted June 25, 2009 Very nice work, Steve! I really like how you did the in-skirt rigging. It flows very nicely. And I like square skirts just fine! The square skirts on a California-style saddle look very different from the ones I've seen on the more Texas-style (if that's what they're called) saddles. Might that be because they have square points and the Texas saddles are more rounded off? Me, I'd like to have a round-skirt custom saddle and then a square-skirt custom saddle and then one of those ones where the skirts come all the way down to the stirrups (I'm told they're called mochillas). Ah, but reality intervenes... at least I'm not hankering after a side saddle, too! Thanks for the pics, Steve. I always enjoy seeing your work. Joanne Quote

MarkB Posted June 26, 2009 Report Posted June 26, 2009 Steve I like the whole thing. The square skirts have a nice look to them and although most of us like round skirts, you made these look great as always. I still like the way you worked the rigging into the skirts, they look strong. I also like that flower pattern. Great job as usual Can't wait to see the next one. You make me what to work harder on the stuff I'm working on. THANKS Mark Quote Visit My Website To succeed you must try, Not trying your sure to fail.
