    Sporran 'faux' pas?

    I am good at a number of things, one of them is being able to make use of existing materials. Upcycling and recycling are my thing.

    This is a short story of how I turned a CD case into a sporran.

    I had a cd case that while in good condition on the outside, the pages were a mess and falling apart.


    After ripping all the seams, I got my pile of goodies and evaluated my options.


    I discovered that If I cut carefully, I could make a 'Rob Roy' using the pattern that I found somwhere on these boards. I drafted a pattern in illustrator, and set to work.


    loops on the back

    the bottom and sides

    and the finished product.
