This Irish Draft gelding was a giant among the Quarter Horses! He is over 17 hh but is a massive presence all round. I just couldn't get enough pictures of this big boy!
My apartment was built in 1905, so it's not really isolated from the outside and becomes reaaaaaally cold in the winters. My mother and I spent two days sewing curtains for the kitchen, the front door (the one on this picture) and the bathroom (the coldest rooms). We had a bit too much fabric, so we had to sew this really cute draft stopper :)
