    Of course, you HAVE to coordinate all of this with matching belts and sporran straps from the incomparable Cavscout. ChattanCat's wife is the fashion fascist, and she should know.
    Thanks Mrs C.

    I agree about the coin holders. One for each sporran (unless you're Southern Breeze or Wompet!!)

    Oh, I don't know, Turpin - only my top three get regular use these days.

    There are a lot of super designs out there that I would like to try, but I decline to use images that are copyrighted for items for sale. I do make up some things on scrap leather just to see how they turn out.

    I hope this thread continues. There is a lot of nice work out there.

    Don't sell yourself short, Tom. Your tooling work is very masterful and looks like it's getting more intricate and accomplished every time I see a new one. Me, I just cut, glue, punch, and sew. I'm afeard of the tooling stuff.
