Look what I made!

So I have always absolutely loved these purses but I never thought I would be capable enough to make one. Well a friend of mine wanted to give one to her boss for her birthday but she didn't want to pay the 50 bucks or more most people charge for these so she asked me if I thought I would be capable of doing it. At first I was going to say no, but then after warning her it might not come out, I decided what the heck why not give it a shot! Well here it is! I am pretty proud of this beauty and I can't wait to make my own now! For those of you that don't know you just add your name tapes from your hubbys uniform to it and you can have one made that says army wife and then you put the unit patches on it etc etc. Its made out of your husbands uniform top and its a way to wear your hero on your arm. Kinda cheesy to some but to us Army wives, were proud of our hubbys and all that they do for this country!
