Thank you, Artificer. Practice pieces are a deffinate must. I was recieving instruction from a good friend of mine, and that was the first thing he told me- keep all of your scrap so you can practice! Thanks for that link. I'll PM you for sure if I need more help (meaning can't get it on my own!! )

You're welcome.
And that was excellent advice from your friend... I too have a big pile of scrap that ALWAYS manages to come in handy for testing dyes, spacing on lace/thread... almost anything. Good luck, post pix!

I don't have very much done as yet. I'm just really getting started and he was starting me out simple- baby steps and all that.

Artificer that #6 sporran is simply gorgeous!
There's nothing classier, in my opinion, than a plain sporran that shows superb craftsmanship.

I agree with OC. In fact I couldn't agree more. Beautiful... Out of interest, how much would one of those (to the same spec) be a costin'? (If it's not a rude question...)

Thanks Richard! I agree that there is something very classic about the plain day bag.

Thanks John, PM sent with some details (and no, it's never rude to inquire about a craftsman's work)
