    Cliff does an excellent job at repairing also. My husbands saddle was involved in a horse wreck that broke the tree and cliff put in a new tree and totally rebuilt the saddle. My husband likes it better now than he did when it was new. We highly recomend this tallented leather worker.

    I was wondering who you do the 2 tone mohair cinch. I would like to learn it for mini versions that i do out of cross stitch thread. I make them for Breyer horses and just only know how to do the basic one color then add the d rings and the diamonds. thank you for any helpful tips you can give.

      Hi Jennifer! Really, the two-tone are pretty difficult to explain. You might try googling ‘Artcords’ and buy their 2nd video. That’s how I learned. I would love to help if I had the time, but right now I just don’t. I’m so sorry!

        I completely understand 🙂 I will have to send you pictures someday. I loved the tutorials you gave on youtube they were helpful. Thank you so much for the 2 tone cinch making information. I will go take a look.

    Hi Kay,

    How think is the leather use to make the saddle?

    How long does one saddle take to make?

      I’m guessing about a 1/4 inch thick, some places, but thinner in others. My husband only makes saddles in his spare tie, so it takes him 6 months to a year.

    I must admit, I’m a bit dissapointed! I’d assumed this blog would be more about the trials & tribulations that we women who work as buckaroo’s, ranchers, or day cowboys, go through, in what was once, traditionally a man’s world!
    We often have to be better, faster, & tougher, just to be acknowledged, & treated as equals, on a regualr basis. (Most of us already have recipes, & we still get to do the cooking too)!
    Your husband does make some very nice saddle, as well…

      I’m sorry you don’t enjoy my blog. I day work part-time, too. I know that women are often treated differently than men. But this blog is not aimed at ‘being equal’. I am a firm believer that we are special because we are different – not because we are all the same. 🙂 I enjoy being treated as a lady – not as one of the guys. I share recipes for the gals who request and enjoy them, a lot do.
      I hope you enjoyed some photos and possibly stories – just an ordinary ranch wife here, living my life to honor God. 🙂
