Ladies!- ever wondered what to do with those Chifney bits?? 👇😉
I love to repurpose leather and fittings into other projects where requested or appropriate but iv not thought of this one before 😅. I think Tina rocked it pretty well!!

An urgent repair had to be carried out this evening. After realising the stitching on my son's relatively new school shoes had gone 😳. It's a good job I keep a spare pair of clams, needles and thread at home 😅, there's always a job!

As i have recently gained some new followers (thankyou- it's much appreciated! 😊) i thought id reintroduce myself and a bit of background.

As soon as I left school I went to London to start my training as a saddler- building saddles, bridle work and harness. I was trained traditionally- hand cutting, handstitching etc. I then went onto to Sailsbury and Somerset to learn more specialised areas of harness that my previous training didn't cover.
I established R Morris Saddler in 2007 and my focus is still very much on the traditional skills on the whole.
I use English leather and English cast metalwork.
Equestrian work- bespoke new items and repairs is my main work but i also undertake a wide range of leather goods repairs & new- you can always ask! 😅.
I grew up with my parents breeding horses & cattle. I have two of my own ponies, who are spending most of thier time in semi-retirement😅 as I have four young children taking most of my time at the moment.
Thankyou for reading and supporting my small business- please feel free to share my page🙂.
