Society of Master Saddlers Qualified Saddler offering high quality hand made leatherwork, bespoke work, adjustments and repairs.

It’s time for another Tool Tuesday!

Today I’m talking about these funny little forks!
These are generally known as pricking irons or stitch markers and, as the name suggests, are used to mark the leather prior to stitching.

You’ll notice that the marks produced are at an angle. It’s this angle that gives hand stitched work a much more attractive appearance than machine stitching .

The different numbers of the markers refer to the number of stitches per inch they produce.

They also come in different widths. I tend to use the 1” wide ones for most of my work and 2 tooth markers for decorative work and shapes.

Fun fact: You have to buy different stitch markers if you stitch left handed as the angle goes in the opposite direction. Although it is technically double handed stitching, your dominant hand also holds the awl and makes the holes as you go.

Making up some dog collars today, what colour do you think I should stitch them?

Something I deal with on a regular basis, is confu

Something I deal with on a regular basis, is confusion over the different qualifications and membership categories within the Society of Master Saddlers.

The most common cause for confusion is the difference between a Saddler and a Saddle fitter. To put it as simply as possible:
-A Saddler is a bench based craftsperson, who can make, adjust and repair saddles, bridles and various other types of leatherwork.
-A Saddle fitter is someone who will be able to fit a saddle to you and your horse.

There are of course a number of other categories and many people will have qualifications across multiple categories. More info can be found at mastersaddlers.co.uk
They also have a database of members where you can search for your local sms members in each category.

What do we think of bright red dog leads?

I am currently looking at events to attend this year (Covid permitting) and busy making up some bits to take with me. I’ll let you know as soon as anything is confirmed. I’m also planning a makeover of the website, to make it easier for you to buy things online.

Replacing Girth Straps. After watching the Grand N

Replacing Girth Straps. After watching the Grand National today I was reminded of a racing saddle I had in for new girth straps.
During the repair I discovered the panel wasn’t in place properly so quickly took it apart to put it back together properly. I always try to give things a good looking over when I have them in as my saddler eyes spot all sorts of things other people often miss!

I seem to have acquired a number of new followers

I seem to have acquired a number of new followers recently so I just wanted to say a big thank you and welcome.
For those who don’t know me, my name is Lucy, I am a fully qualified saddler and make a range of products for people, dogs and horses. I also do repairs and adjustments to all sorts of leather items.

I am having a big spring clean and am selling a lot of the items I have previously used for shows, fairs and photoshoots, as well as a few old exam and competition pieces.

Go to lucyellisleatherwork.co.uk ➡️SHOP➡️APRIL SALE

All items are one of a kind and many I won’t be making again so grab them while you can!
