Project Blog - Historic Sporrans / Brass Cantle Project

Congratulations Scott on a very fine creation. If it was within my power, I would dub thee "Master Sporran Maker". As usual the stitching is immaculate and the rear leather colouring superb. I really like the colouring of the hair that you used and the tapering of it just adds to the finesse.

Beautiful!

After seeing this, I can't wait to see what you do when the brass and pewter cantles are ready!

Simply stunning, Scott! And a practical application of an historic style.

Very well done! Impeccable dying and construction. Looking at that pocket makes you think how much simpler life was before cellphones and car keys.

You get my rarely delivered, coveted "WOW!"

Thanks gents for the positive feedback. This one was a VERY in depth project, and this is only the first of these I plan on doing.

I learned quite a bit on this one, some good things, and some I won't repeat (like having to re-cut and re-stitch the entire rear panel after I was displeased with the first attempt)
