I am an American Civil War reenactor, and I want to wear my kilt to our annual Christmas party. The problem is, that I do not have a sporran from the 1860s. I have been thinking of doing my own using a pattern, but I am not sure how to locate the correct patterns/who to talk to on a sporran style that was common in and during the American Civil War.

Any help would be welcomed, cause I want to do this DIY and the images I have seen on here, which I cannot find those threads, and the patterns I found online and from here look like modern ones.

Additionally, I have a non-wool kilt, as I have a high allergy to wool, would that be ok to wear to a formal dinner, as I am a private within the unit I am a part of? Additionally, what would be a good accessory for my wife to add to her outfits that is Scottish as well?
