    Not bad at all!

    Plus you have some seriously heavy duty attachment points for your strap!

    So if I send your wife some of the scrap elk hide I have laying around, would she make me one?

    Just kidding! I just need to get my targe done so I can start my next sporran!

    Seriously, though, that's nice work! Looks like it's got really solid construction, too.

    The stitching that is seen is done with waxed thread from Tandy, and the internal stitching is Parachute thread so that she could use her Machine. Very sturdy stuff. The top flap and backing is 16oz veg tanned leather that I dyed, and the rest is burgandy oily hide.

    And in all seriousness, she would be willing to make you one, if you like.
