My First Saddle (sort of)




Here is the saddle I finally finished for my wife Candace.  It was originally meant to be a birthday present which then turned to an anniversary present, then a Christmas present back to a birthday present.  It then turned back to an anniversary present and almost wound up being a Christmas present again but it's done now.  As you can see, she wasn't even the first person to get to ride in it!!  It's just a simple roughout on a CS Reiner with oversized dees.  It has a padded seat and close contact skirts.  I am already working on another one (which I actually started before this one).  I am working on my turnaround time!!
