Super photos Matt, I love these group shots which match faces with xmarks usernames. The Cahaba Memorial and the Saint Ninian are two very lovely tartans.

great pics Matt and of course the St. Ninian tartan scarf, designed by you was worn by a VIP in Scotland in September 2010

I've been waiting for these photos, Matt. They're terrific. Great to see so many kilts!

Here's a close-up.

My wife calls this one my Hufflepuff sporran (for all you Harry Potter fans). It's a Ferguson Britt sporran, as most of mine are.

It is the same style as the Inverarnan, in fur, made with the half-octagon shape cantle. I had him leave off the usual tassels, so the natural elements of the fur could shine a bit more. I love this style sporran for it's roomy pouch and wide mouth.

Badger fur is both thick, soft, and has attractive coloring, so I've wanted one for a while now. Any of the Ferguson Britt sporrans can be made with Badger fur.

I do like that cantle. Very nice workmanship.

Thanks for posting the excellent, and interesting photos.
It was great to meet you. I can't wait to get my new linen jacket! The linen jacket is such a great idea, I hope you expand upon the available colors. Hang on to my measurements, I'm sure I'll be needing another one!
