made a new ( bigger) sporran

[jhockin]

I found that the sporran that I bought, through this forum, just wasn't big enough, so it has been on my "to-do" list, for some time now, to make one, that's bigger, so I can actually carry most of my 'stuff'.
I had some deerskin, that I bought for it, and some thicker leather, from older projects, so, the other day, I finally got to it. I cut out a ten and a half inch circle, sewed a small hem around the edge, punched hole ( for the drawstring), sewed on the "lid" with attached hanger loop, sewed on the fronts-piece, made up the drawstrings, with tassels, dyed the whole works & waterproofed it. It's actually big enough that I could probably carry 2 or 3 beers in it
I'm pleased with the way it turned out, (if not perfectly, at least usefully)
