I'm sure that both Lamar and Turpin will be able to do a great job with your cantle. The only thing that comes to my mind is that sporrans with working hinged cantles are Lamar's stock-in-trade, and he has an awful lot of experience making bags to work in tandem with that arangement. That said, I still think that both of these gentlemen would be able to do a great job!

...on the subject of how the three tassles originated, I've heard mention of them arising from the two ends of the drawstring and the end of the closure on the covering flap of old belt-pouch style sporrans, but I really don't know that we have a solid historical base to support that assertion.
