    I really like that bear. (My college mascot was one. ) How did you carve it into the leather?

    I used an x-facto knife to cut the bear then an edger (I don't know if that is the name of the tool) to hammer down the outside.

    Nice sporran. Have you considered adding a bear claw or two? They have reproductions in a hard plastic that may embellish your artwork.

    Nice work, but the most important thing is that it will hold your stuff.
