I have really been putting planning for MITS off... But I am getting it done... I finished a hunt bridle for Topic complete with laced reins! [The small print: I was working late one night and laced the reins BOTH backwards so... XD I redid them, in the morning. And yes, I use the backs of old school notebooks as work pads...] Also done is a hunter/jumper breastplate for Topic's set with my 50 cent elastic... we are gonna rock this! Also finished: black browband gaming bridle with green reins [awesome] pink browband bridle with sparkles green gaming saddle red gaming saddle black dressage saddle black GP saddle some vetrap boots some girths and some other things... I will try to have more pictures of the new saddles and other exciting stuff! Now for all that classlist paperwork shmulz... ;)

Yippee, I just found the rest of the pictures! The first class, Novice Other Performance. The next class was... Novice Other English! The nest class was Novice English Pleasure, I was super excited to see my side saddle set win! Then came Novice Other Western, *still setting up!* Ocala Breeze, we were literally driving through Ocala on our way to the show when I bought this guy! Sparticus, (the mule.) Odysseus, the "king." I was soooo busy taking pictures of my friend Grace's and my own horse Tow Sawyer in front of a picture backdrop I forgot to take pictures of western pleasure! *drat* (I did get one, sorta!) The last class was Grand and Reserve Champion. Strangely enough Downtown Lights who placed third in Novice English Pleasure came back to win Grand Champion! Below I have attached a slideshow of Open Performance pictures, I hope you like them! I did not own or make any of the tack in the slideshow above.
MITS was a great day for me! I took home a Champion Ribbon from my entries in novice performance, and I placed in the ribbons in almost every class! Hotrod won a third with my "Beach Ride" entry, wearing a saddle made by my friend Madelyne. Madelyne sells tack from her website here. My entries for other performance! In the end, I took home Grand Champion Novice Performance, and a prize set of Breyer's GG Valentine and Heartbreaker! And a Huckleberry Bay door prize model! I was also lucky enough to be able to do a trade with Madelyne and get an awesome bareback endurance set out of the deal! I also bought a *few* other things, but that's a different post entirely! Sneak Peek!
Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to do a post on Hamlet, yes he is one of the 2014 Breyerfest Celebration Models so as usual I took a lot of pictures! I thought since I am going to MITS 2014 this weekend I would do a post on packing show models. I just started experimenting with making them this week and I have come up with a very quick and easy design. To start cut a piece of fleece or felt to 8 inches by 15 inches. Now fold the top end down 1 1/2 inches, and fold the bottom up to line up with the crease. Pin it! Time to sew! Starting at the top... sew down to the very bottom on both sides. Great, you now have a rectangle of fabric! Turn it inside out... Ta-da! Yer done!
Today's post is going to be on the beautiful Drum horse breed, with the very photogenic stallion Mariah's Boon! Boon was the 2012 Breyerfest Celebration Model and was invited as a guest horse to the 2013 Models In The Sun show, a great live show in Ocala Florida. Boon horses are around 17 hands tall and heavily feathered , the mane is also very thick and full. The best quality of this breed is their gentle willing temperament, even as a stallion Boon was wonderful and lowered his head for the younger kids to pet him. Boon horses are also very funny, curious, and entertaining! Outside the clubhouse where the show was being held there was a cement pig statue, which Boon was not sure what to think of! I think if the pig had winked he would have bolted. If you look at his upper lip he also has a mustache!
I hope you enjoyed the pictures. |
