Everyone Starts Somewhere

While I'm far from calling myself an expert in tack making, I do feel like I'm getting better. I found what I would consider to be the first ever saddle I made. It once was a Breyer saddle and I customized it.

I gave it new knee rolls and redid the tree.

 I gave the saddle shape by inserting a metal tree into it. 

The saddle served me well for my novice days, but I evolved so this saddle has been retired.

So yes, every artist has to start somewhere. You can only go up!
