    Woa!

    Scott, that sporran is a beautiful work of art and engineering! I love the silhouette of the bag- very classic, but not the exact shape that you always see, nowdays. And the red interior- fantastic.

    You've got the magic touch, sir.

    Thank you, sir!

    I cannot take credit for the bag shape, that was the Commissioner's.

    I really like the red interior, too. It's something most people will never see, but when the bag is opened there's a little 'pop' of colour that I think is really surprising and wonderful on the all-black bag.

    And now, finally - Finished!

    Packing #11 away for posting to it's new owner


    I started to use the crimson microfibre bags for protecting the british tan leather on the #5's and #6, and just loved the look. I think commissioning a custom piece should be something special, and the bag is a nice little touch.
    The care and maintenance letter is just plain helpful, since not everyone has experience with a given material.

    As always, commentary and critiques are more than welcome.
    That's all folks!
