    How special!! His family will appreciate that you used his uniform. They look really good in the picture, even sideways, so don't worry about it.

    My son is a Marine just returned from Afghanistan. Semper Fi!! What a great idea!! I've been saving Michaels and hoping to find something, do you have a pattern??? Sorry for your loss, and thanks to your hubby. Being a Marine takes a special kind of person.
