Camp purse...literally!




I have been busy..as son in laws family has come to visit with him while he is home from Iraq, and I decided to finally make DD 's "camp" purse from his old BDU"S...fatigues. This is the result. I tried to use all the bits from his old uniform. It had a few problems...but all in all turned out OK. Had to share. We picked out a really wild looing lining...but it is pretty much covered up with the big inside pockets. Have a great day!

Super cute Michael Miller lining in there. Thats a lovely bag. I had Rob make you up some name tapes for your own personal bag too. He'll pick them up Friday after work. I love the quilt in the background too. Did you make it? ~jen~

What a great idea! Maybe I can get The Princess to give me a set of her old BDU's. I really like the part with the name tape *s*
