    New sporran

    I have never been someone that likes to brag, But I really do like this sporran. I made it for one of our nations finest. We corresponded quite a while till we got the design just right.

    Besides, it ain't braggin if it's true!

    One of the absolute prettiest I've ever seen. Well done!

    You should brag. Very nicely balanced all the way around.

    I think you've more than earned the right to brag. I really need to get me some pinking and broguing tools...(Not sure those are words but I know what I mean in my head lol).

    Thank you for sharing!

    HippieLee,
    If you do find where to get pinking or broguing tools, please let me know. It would make my life so much easier. I did all that with my mothers pinking shears. Kinda hard to cut leather with those.

    That just makes your work even more impressive!
    If I find any I'll let you know - I've been searching the web and found mentions of there being instructions for using an old metal file to make some leather working tools but I can't actually find the instructions - just people talking about them. And here I thought my google-fu was strong...
