My first sporran! Sorta...

I have a friend who has MS. He has a hard time walking, and uses a walker. He can't wear a regular sporran because it gets in the way of his legs, or it gets in the way of his walker. So I watched him walk with his sporran on and it occurred to me- the sporran is too long! It's not the belt, not wear the sporran is worn- the body of the sporran itself hung just right to get in his way. So I did some research into belt bags. I found this on eBay, which I liked:

But it's not all that big and won't hold wallet, keys, cell phone, etc. So I made a sporran that is a hybrid of a traditional sporran and a belt pouch!

The clan crest is Lyle.



Extra deep gusset- 3 inches- to make room for all the stuff that we all carry.





And dee rings for belt attachment.


I'll be making a sporran belt that attaches like a sporran chain, using spring clips to make it easy for my friend to attach the belt. I can't wait to get a picture of him wearing it! I think he's going to be stoked!
