Sporran #11 - Commission, Skunk: WIP

[BLHS209]

(I may be biased but...) Very nice!!! The dark brown/tan would have been nice too (maybe for the yellow/white stripes?) but the black doesn't distract from the pelt.

Bugger!
After spending the better part of two day's worth of free time stitching the back cantle together (it's nearly 3/4" thick of veg-tan) and lacing the lip, I ground to a halt when I ran out of black waxed thread.

Of course, my leather shop is closed today (when I have time to labour- please note the irony).

Here's where the update sits:

Front, gusset stitched, only awaiting installation of braids at the end of project.


Rear, awaiting trim and gusset attachment (halted for want of 1.5m of thread)
