100% Mohair Horse Cinches. Handmade with love in Montana with the comfort of your horse in mind.
I feel so blessed to have many amazing people in my life who have added to the rich colors I so enjoy!
My talented friend, and gifted cinch maker, Val Chambers, has taken the time to patiently mentor me as I learn to weave roper cinches!
“What a place the world would be if each person had just a single human In their life that took sincere interest in their journey.”
Learning something new takes time, dedication and a LOT of patience ! Most importantly though - it takes the amazing people around you - to encourage you to keep trying and keep going when you want to give up- to support you through the ups and downs- it takes the wisdom of experienced mentors willing to slow up and ride with you for a few miles or more until you understand a concept- it takes friends willing to offer advice carefully painted with love. I am so grateful to have people like that in my life as I learn new skills! 💕
Thanks Glen Ferguson for sharing your photo of your Red Roan Cinch on your beautiful Paint mare hard at work!
Fun February Project ❄️
“Little Vaquero”
26” straight cinch
“He sits tall in the saddle,
Firm steady and proud.
Away from the masses,
And the maddening crowd.
His face weather beaten,
The jaw set like stone.
Over hills and through gulleys,
He rides all alone.
His hands are as gnarled,
As a hawk’s devil claw.
They grip tightly his reins,
And are quick on the draw.
His black eyes stare out,
From beneath his felt hat.
His hair falls on his collar,
The blackest of jet.
His legs slightly bowed,
From long years on the go.
He’s ridden through rain storms,
And dust storms and snow.
Six feet, maybe more,
He has on his frame.
They call him Vaquero,
No one knows his name.
The inlaid silver saddle,
That he sits upon,
Is the last thing he owns,
Of his father now gone.
But till then he’ll wander,
The prairie alone.
With the paint as his partner,
And the prairie his home.
The sky is his blanket,
The good Earth is his bed.
As he hums to himself,
An old song in his head.
They call him Vaquero,
He’s one of a kind.
Of a breed of hard men,
You no longer find.
He rides off toward the sunset,
And the gathering storm.
With full faith in his maker,
That keeps him from harm,
He’s a man like no other,
That no one can tame.
He sits tall in the saddle,
And Vaquero is his name.”

Little wild with color.
“It is in your hands to create a better world for all who live in it.”
Nelson Mandela
“He who works with his hands
is a laborer. He who works with his hands
and his head is a craftsman He who works with his hands, his head, and his heart,
is an artist.”
Louis Nizer
“Glacier Lake”
“Skedaddle”
Verb. Run away. Take off. Journey on.
“The journey is never ending. There’s always gonna be growth, improvement, adversity; you just gotta take it all in and do what’s right, continue to grow, continue to live in the moment.”
Antonio Brown
“Sometimes it’s the journey that teaches you a lot about your destination.”
Drake
“Sometimes we make the process more complicated than we need to. We will never make a journey of a thousand miles by fretting about how long it will take or how hard it will be. We make the journey by taking each day step by step and then repeating it again and again until we reach our destination.”
Joseph B. Wirthlin
“Enjoy the journey and try to get better every day. And don’t lose the passion and the love for what you do.”
Nadia Comaneci
“Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.”
Greg Anderson
Holiday Edition. 28.5”
If that saddle could talk- the stories it would tell! Jim started making his own tack while working on the Horse Ranch in central Montana. Back in those good old days, a man had to work a lot of long days to afford good tack - his hobby was born out of necessity. I sure am glad he picked up a swivel knife and skiver- it has made for some pretty special bonding time with the young lads
New color. New day. Possibilities.

“Strawberry Roan” 31” Straight Cinch The Strawberry Roan 🎵 “I was hangin’ ‘round town, just spendin’ my time Out of a job, not earnin’ a dime A feller steps up and he said, “I suppose You’re a bronc fighter from looks of your clothes” “you figures me right, I’m a good one” I claim “do you happen to have any bad ones to tame?” Said “he’s got one, a bad one to buck At throwin’ good riders, he’s had lots of luck” I gets all het up and I ask what he pays To ride this old nag for a couple of days He offered me ten; I said, “I’m your man A bronc never lived that I couldn’t span” He said: “get your saddle, I’ll give you a chance” In his buckboard we hopped and he drives to the ranch I stayed ‘til mornin’ and right after chuck I stepped out to see if this outlaw can buck Down in the horse corral standin’ alone Is an old caballo, a strawberry roan His legs are all spavined, he’s got pigeon toes Little pig eyes and a big roman nose Little pin ears that touched at the tip A big 44 brand was on his left hip U-necked and old, with a long, lower jaw I could see with one eye, he’s a regular outlaw I gets the blinds on ‘im and it sure is a fright Next comes the saddle and I screws it down tight Then I steps on ‘im and I raises the blinds Get outta the way boys, he’s gonna unwind He sure is a frog-walker, he heaves a big sigh He only lacks wings, for to be on the fly He turns his old belly right up to the sun He sure is a sun-fishin’, son-of-a-gun He’s about the worst bucker I’ve seen on the range He’ll turn on a nickel and give you some change He hits on all fours and goes up on high Leaves me a spinnin’ up there in the sky I turns over twice and I comes back to earth I lights in a cussin’ the day of his birth I know there are ponies that I cannot ride There’s some of them left, they haven’t all died I’ll bet all my money, the man ain’t alive That’ll stay with old strawberry When h
“Winterberry” 30” straight cinch “The Touch of the Masters Hand Twas battered and scarred, and the auctioneer thought it scarcely worth his while to waste much time on the old violin, but held it up with a smile; “What am I bidden, good folks,” he cried, “Who’ll start the bidding for me?” “A dollar, a dollar”; then two!” “Only two? Two dollars, and who’ll make it three? Three dollars, once; three dollars twice; going for three..” But no, from the room, far back, a gray-haired man came forward and picked up the bow; Then, wiping the dust from the old violin, and tightening the loose strings, he played a melody pure and sweet as caroling angel sings. The music ceased, and the auctioneer, with a voice that was quiet and low, said; “What am I bid for the old violin?” And he held it up with the bow. A thousand dollars, and who’ll make it two? Two thousand! And who’ll make it three? Three thousand, once, three thousand, twice, and going and gone,” said he. The people cheered, but some of them cried, “We do not quite understnad what changed its worth.” Swift came the reply: “The touch of a master’s hand.” And many a man with life out of tune, and battered and scarred with sin, Is auctioned cheap to the thoughtless crowd, much like the old violin, A “mess of pottage,” a glass of wine; a game - and he travels on. “He is going” once, and “going twice, He’s going and almost gone.” But the Master comes, and the foolish crowd never can quite understand the worth of a soul and the change that’s wrought by the touch of the Master’s hand.” Myra ‘Brooks’ Welch #mohair #mohaircinch #redroancinch #horsetack #cinch #handmade #montanamade #saddlery

“Real friends are the ones you can count on no matter what. The ones who go into the forest to find you and bring you home.And real friends never have to tell you that they’re your friends.” Morgan Matson “Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It’s not something you learn in school. But if you haven’t learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven’t learned anything.” MUHAMMAD ALI
