I was at a show today and one of the vendors (whom I have never noticed before) was selling pelts (among other things). He had some coyote, raccoon, etc. and he said that he can get badger, beaver, otter, etc.. The prices he was asking were less than I was expecting and I got to wondering...

Full mask sporrans are quite expensive, but apparently considered suitable for both casual and dress wear. I wonder how hard it would be to make your own sporran if you had a full pelt and some kind of pattern? Has anyone ever seen detailed instructions on how to make such a thing? Has anyone here made your own full mask sporran??
