How to attach the Newsome-style left-hand strap?

Thanks, Alan! That's pretty much what I had envisioned, but sometimes my vision is skewed

There's a Tandy store not too far from me, too. . . I've just been resisting going there, as I KNOW it will turn into a $200 trip. . . I have some old leather-working tools of my father's, will have to drag that box out and see what goodies lurk within.

ardchoille: Doesn't look to me as if it's under the lining. I think the lining is pulling away a bit as the kilt is held out for photo purposes.
