Simply amazing. I really need to find myself some dye/stain so I can work with different colors... especially since I have such a hard time finding black at a price I can afford. I also need to learn such excellant embellishment skills.
Funny story... I saw your first Irish Harp sporran and wanted to find an Irish Harp pattern for myself. I ended up Photochopping a black/white Guinness logo.

Care to share the source of the turnlock closure? I've been wanting to buy some for a while. I have a few sporrans that need closures to be "finished."

I agree... the tri-lobe flap is quite an attention getter... assuming you can pull your attention away from that beautiful Irish Harp!
Speaking of pin-lock closures... anyone know a source for those? I'm about this close | | to buying a set of hood pins from Summit Racing and converting those to sporran closures some how. That'd be a great way to merge my love for auto racing with my love for kilts/kilt accessories.
