I've recently come across a photo featuring a fantastic dragon costume that was worn by a pony apparently a winning team. Little rider was wearing a dragonhunter costume and they looked absolutely adorable. Now here's the question: Would there be anywhere to download cuts and recipes for making such costume? Or are there any such things available to buy? Event in question is in 4 weeks and my mother in law is very good at sewing however not in the best of health so I'd like to make her task as easy as possible. Ponies are a Sec. A and a (fat) Sec. B. Any suggestions pls? Hope it is ok to post pic here. Just loved it!!! Attachment Deleted

This was the winning team from Equifest - you might be able to track the family down via Equifest results and see if she can point you in the right direction?
I was there when they did evening performance and have to say this costume was AMAZING!!

I was there too and it was just brilliant, I think I heard them saying that Grandma had made the costume and that they were also last years winners when the pony was dressed as an elephant! By the looks of the costume they had on it'd take a long while to make, good luck

I agree it looks like easily a few weeks worth of labor and I think it is also supercreative! Thank you so much for pointing out which event this was at. On FB where I found it it didn't say anywhere there were a lot of comments indicating people thought it was in the US (where the red ribbon would mean 2nd not 1st) and people were wondering how this costume could not have been made the winning one I shall check it out maybe they would care to sell it or lend it out for a fee although I think with that kind of work involved they would probably want to keep it.

You're fantastic. Trouble is I can't even manage to locate the proper class. Would that be class 80 or 81? From what I can see the little dragon-hunter kid looks to be a boy. Would be fantastic if we could indeed borrow it because the event is rather highscale the display will be for two stallion parades at the Celle State Stud to celebrate the 300 years personal union of the British Royals and Hanover. It's a very big thing and I'd like to leave a beautiful impression with the ponies. We're bringing 3 Sec B's and one Sec A to display the qualities of Welsh as childrens ponies Feeling very honored this is the 2nd time we're invited for it.
