It sounds like you know what needs to happen. The sporran cut-away does need to be a bit more exaggerated. I think you can get by with just putting a wider radius on the cut-away. I'd drop down from the bottom button hole the same distance as it is from the vertical edge and start my radius there. Sweep it back so that the end of the curve is still toward the front of your body (not around the side. let the radius get right up to the top corners of the sporran when the jacket is almost closed. Then smooth out the radius around those three points and you should have a fair sporran cut-away.

This still may not look perfect but it will be much closer.


Great effort! I bought a clearance jacket last year and still have not gotten the courage to cut into it yet Maybe this year.
