Just some straightforward headcollar repairs on the bench this morning. Remember, a headcollar breaking is always better than your horse becoming injured, and luckily they are pretty easy to fix!

Just a short day in the workshop for me as I’m now off to get dressed into “normal people” clothes and head into London. Don’t worry, I didn’t suddenly get a social life, it’s just time for the National Saddlery Competition.
I’ve been working on my entries behind the scenes for a little while now and I’m really looking forward to being able to share them with you after tonight!

Today’s post is a hole lot of fun !

Did you know that different shaped holes are used for different purposes? Round holes are typically only used on bridles. Meanwhile oval holes are much stronger and are used on items where more strength is required such as stirrup leathers and girth straps, as well as “non-ridden” items like headcollars and harness.

Bonus fact for you, there is also such a thing as the “correct” distance between holes. The space between round holes is normally the same as the width of the strap, while the space between oval holes is the width of the strap plus 1/8”.

As with many traditional saddlery “rules”, you will find plenty of exceptions these days. This is due to many factors like changes to manufacturing methods and quality of materials.

At the end of the day, all that matters is your tack fits correctly and is safe!

“Which belts are for men and which belts are for women?”

This is a question I’m getting asked more and more. I like to say there is no such thing as a stupid question but…😬

The simple reality is, here at Lucy Ellis Leatherwork, the gender you associate with is unimportant. All belts are made in the same way, you pick the size and style, and I make it. Simple!

In other news, what do you all think of the new crown belt? Very similar to the classic but with a beautiful crown buckle (also available, the crown dog collar!)

This is the super speedy Alan wearing one of my elastic insert breast-girths while competing at the World Championships in France earlier this month.

Alan was a racing pony and now competes at top level mounted games with his owner Jack.
A lot of games ponies have problems with their saddles slipping back with the rapid acceleration they achieve when racing. The great thing about the elastic insert breastplate is that it’s the perfect halfway between a leather breast-girth and an elastic breast-girth.

“Honestly it’s perfect for him because of the stretch in it it doesn’t restrict his movement at all.”

*Out of Workshop”

Happy Monday everyone.
A rainy day like this can only mean one thing…I’m off on holiday! 🙌

I won’t be checking any of my business accounts or responding to any messages/calls but I’ll be back in the workshop on Monday 16th August and will reply to any messages then.
Thanks, have a lovely week ☺️

“Perfection is an illusion based on our own perc

“Perfection is an illusion based on our own perception”

I think that this may be my favourite photo that @hollyouttridgephotography took when she came to visit us a few weeks ago. I hate being in front of the camera and didn’t want any pictures of myself, but she tricked me by pretending the dogs were modelling some collars (thank you, you sneaky lady.)

The reason I love it, is because although some would consider it to be a “blooper”, it is so incredibly genuine. To me it is perfect. Beano is being his typical awkward self and rolling around like a puppy, Ivy is being a bossy little madam and telling him off, and me…well I’m just laughing hysterically at them both! The reality of working with animals is that they don’t always co-operate, and yes it can be a total pain, but sometimes the result can be even better?

It got me thinking about my leatherwork and how I strive for perfection on every object I make, yet I am never satisfied I have achieved it. Now I do have to be careful here because I think it is excellent to have high standards and motivation to improve. However, I do believe that many things that appear imperfect to someone, may appear perfect to someone else for the exact same reason. For example, a small anomaly in a hide alters the appearance of the surface of the leather, or does it just add character and tell a small part of the story of that cow?

To be honest I am never going to, nor do I want to settle with the standard of my work. However, when I make a belt and can’t stop thinking about that one stitch that doesn’t sit quite right, it will be some consolation to know that someone out there may just see that one stitch as the reason the belt is perfect.
