I would LOVE to know how you made that bag. My husband just had to retire half his work wardrobe as the Navy just changed their uniforms... it would be so great to turn one of his old uniforms into a bag!

I just cut up the shirt, sewed up the front placard and used the back of the shirt for the back. The outside pockets are the pockets from the shirt. I removed all pockets and repositioned them depending on how big the bag was going to be.

Wish I could be more specific - it just all depends on the style of the shirt and how big a bag you want.
