    Handmade Sporran

    Here is a picture of my stab at a homemade sporran The leather is a sharkskin embossed cowhide. A little stiff but servicable.

    looks nice. I like the "pebbled" look ofthe leather. Is that a disk of bone on the lid?

    I've done leather work since I was a kid, and doubt that I could make a nicer sporran

    Welcome to a worldwide community!
    Nice lacing. I'd be interested in more details or pics of the side and back. Have you done other leather work?
