    Thanks Dave,

    I'm feeling kinda stupid here - I have two BK Country Sporrans....didn't realize "that" was what we were talking about.

    Big as they are, this rotund old guy has trouble getting his hand in them and finding the stuff he puts in there.

    The BK Country Sporran's limited size (for me) is why I stepped up to the next size with the Nativearth #6 pouch adaptation.

    When I lay the former on the later the extra space is obvious...what "I" need. Ain't it great there's such an array of sporrans to choose from for personal size, taste, and occasion.

    Kiwi,
    I just completed two sporrans using the diagrams you posted. I'll post pictures as soon as I get a free moment.
    It is really not a hard project if you are already conversant with stitching leather. If you've never done leather work before you'll be in for a bit of a struggle. I have advice for you either way, so feel free to PM me for details.

    I have finally figured out what my problem is. I'm so used to having multiple pockets in my jeans that everything has a place. With the sporran, it all goes into one pouch and thus I have to unload it to find an individual item.

    I went to Walmart today and got a different style wallet and a combination key ring/change purse to try and organize a little better when I'm kilted. Maybe that will help some.

    I still want to get a Freelander someday.
