Making patterns from scratch is hard.
Oi. This could be interesting. I really want to make a new English saddle though. Unfortunately (or is it fortunately? Ha!) I’ve put it aside till I get some new leather dye…
Leather and I don’t usually get along. Why am I attempting this again?!

Good luck!
I’m sure you’ll do great!
If you can make an arabian costume, you can make a saddle!

Sorry this is such a late reply….hope the pattern making is going well.
And I have that horse in the pic too, and she’s also my “model” for all the projects! 😀
