Possible DIY

I am thinking of doing a little diy project... My usual pad really isn't quite thick enough, so I figure one of those cheap little thin covers would bulk it up just enough. But I wanted to take it a step further, so I have decided to buy a cheap pad, and embroider some designs onto it.
Cheap pads can be found HERE. I absolutely love horse.com they have everything, and usually for a good price. And I get the added excitement of getting a package in the mail!
Right now I need to pick out a color and order the saddle pad though. My mom requested blue for Dolly, but I was thinking of purple for Roxy. These are just at home/gymkhana pads. Probably not for showing, as I prefer boring colors to match my pants.

What color do you think Roxy would look good in? To keep it cleaner, I'm going to stick to a darker color since it'll be used every ride.

    Almost any color matches Bay so you won't go wrong. I always prefer Navy or some kind of blue for my bay horse.

      I have the bay mare in blue, it's the dun I'm having trouble deciding on.

      Purple is my favorite color too! But Roxy does look quite dashing in hunter green. As boring as it is, black compliments her pretty well too.
