advice about leather?

[cwr89]

I am not that great with leather, though I did get my leather work merit badge in boy scouts some 5 years ago hehe. I have however made a sporran of that pattern that cavscout posted. its not bad, I ended up doing mine in canvas because my palms wouldn't hold up to the stitching needles (I didn't have all the right tools)

this is what I came up with:



I'd say go get yourself some scrap to practice with first. and HAVE FUN!

I agree with Tartan Hiker. Get to a Tandy Store. Most of the folks who work there know enough to help you get started. It wouldn't be a bad idea to take a list of the tools you have so you don't buy something you don't need.
Good luck and good for you!
