He's an ex racing greyhound so I had the amazing idea of dressing him up as a racehorse and my 2yo DD as his jockey :o (obviously she won't be riding him!)

I need help to make a saddle and stirrups. I'll probably use felt as it's lightweight and won't bother him much. As a saddle pad/cloth I can just buy him a racing bib and attach the saddle to it. But I don't know where to start with making a saddle! I can't sew but I'm pretty handy with glue :o it shouldn't be too difficult should it?

I've also posted this in chat btw.

More this kind of thing, a saddle, but I don't want a cowboy one, or one with a rider already on it. Greyhounds are weirdly shaped compared to most breeds hence the need for a home made creation :o

Done it! :o It only took me a couple of hours. It's 90% PVA glue and roughly 9.8% felt, the other 0.1% is staples :o
