We have snow!
Today we had a snow day. Yay! This morning we got the email (three emails, actually) that we didn't have school. It would seem that the teachers are just as happy to get out of school. It was really nice, and I got to clean up the basement. I'll have pictures of both snow and basement (before and after) tomorrow.
Halters are coming along. Pictures tomorrow!

More Progress
And once more, it's born of procrastination. Joy. One of these days I'm going to crack down and just do my homework... but that day is not today. It might be tomorrow or Saturday though, because I have no certain plans to do anything and they might be good days for self-reform. Hah.
So. Yes. We have progress. Now that all the details of the first-place raffle halter are cleared up, some solid progress has been made on actually putting it together. Lady Phase might hate me forever after for getting glue even near her, but so what. (I can't stand Lady Phase, I dunno about you. She photographs badly for me...) Anyway.
The halter is black nylon with a bright blue nylon overlay on noseband and cheek-pieces. So far the noseband is finished, but I'm alternating writing this post and working on the halter. And homework. But the point is that by the end of this post it could well be finished. Okay, never mind. I have to finish my History.
I'm a little scattered this evening because it feels like a Friday and that's just not fair. So please bear with me and the brevity of this post... blargh.

Visible Progress by One Procrastinating Eva
Remarkable how much you can procrastinate when you don't put your mind to your work, eh? I've been doing that almost the entire time since I got home and I'm really not too pleased about it. At least I've made a little progress on halters.
I have not started with the first place raffle halter per se, but I have started experimenting with the style. I'd hate to send a first attempt at something to someone. That would not be pretty. So instead of making a black and green halter for a Stone ISH, I started making a black and red halter for a Breyer Strapless. I'll probably do the cheek-pieces and then drop it until my backlog is canceled.
Progress so far:
That's the noseband. I think it looks pretty snazzy--you?
I also found that Lady Phase's head is almost exactly the same as the ISH's, so I don't have to worry about going off measurements. Thank goodness!
