    The addiction DOESN'T improve . . . and it tends to cost A LOT. But unlike other addictions, you get nnice stuff on the other side.

    So, what do the sporrans look like. Is it the "normal" flapped style?
    I just finished one humorous one last night and am going to finish another this weekend. I have about 5 more in various stages. (IF I ever get caught up, it will be 11, three bought rest made.)
    On another note, the one mentioned by me (and others) from NWTA is:
    http://www.nwta.com/

    If these directions are followed, the bag is shallow and wide. Mine have similar basic construction, but a much diffferent shape (deeper/longer vertically). Also, the NWTA version is black lettering on white. By the time I converted to jpeg, then to photobucket, it seems to have become a negative:confused: (white lettering on black).

    Pics? Photrobucket works easily and is VERY quick and ACTUALLY FREE!

    Thank you very much for that link! I had been wanting to attempt a sporran and could not find instructions!

    I made the same one you have pictured in your post and am almost finished with another that is a little different being a little bit deeper with horse hair tassles.
