Mmmmm, the feel of new leather

Holes in deerskin are no big deal, Trim the inside of the hole - Keep it round, just square off the thickness, and whip stitch a hole sized patch in place. Deer is like neoprene, and the patch will adjust nicely.

Its not a matter of just patching it, I am well aware of how to do that. A patch on the leather will be distracting. As said originally in my post I will have to put the problem areas with the leather in a place where they will not detract from the quality of the sporran.
