Pretty cool interpretation! Been thinking about buckles myself but I'm concerned they may take too long to use and become annoying. Let us know how it works out.
Didn't take long, but here we go with sporran number two. I used an old pair of jeans and an old black handbag that I bought from a charity shop. Did something different at the back, putting in both belt loops and a chain, giving me options as to what belt I wear with it. Also used a button and drawstring from a camera as a fastener at the front, which I think looks good and is very practical/speedy to use.
You seem to be leaning toward a square motif which is certainly untraditional. Are you just working with what you have on hand or more attracted to an unconventional aesthetic?

Combination of the two. As previously stated, these sporrans are only for daywear and as I only wear my kilt casually, definitely wanted something a bit non-tradtional, but still recognisable as a sporran.
It may not look it from the picture, but the second does have a more rounded bottom when I actually wear it and put stuff in it.
I'm currently sketching some designs for sporran number three which may have a more traditional look.
