I've just recently had someone ask if I could make a sporran for them.

Are there patterns available, or did you just "wing" it?

Leatherworking is much better than tattooing. If you screw up the leather, you just get another piece......

I'm just curious: How is a sporran different than a purse?

I think that Sporran is pronounced with a scottish brogue, and purse isn't......

As coming from Scottish ancestory, I think I can spill the secret, Sporran really means "man purse".

That was a joke.....

Tom, a sporran is the "pockets" of a kilt. It's worn in the front like a belt pouch both to keep your keys etc in, but also to keep the kilt from doing a "Marilyn". So really the only difference is where one wears it. (Though there is somewhat of a size limitation when wearing any sort of pouch as a sporran!)
