I lettered in high school (choir) but never got a jacket (too expensive). Now my letter can have a place to live!!
What a great idea!
I start my Family Nurse Practitioner program in three weeks, and this will be perfect to make and wear for my university!
Perfect!
I can't wait to get star started on my Fall wardrobe.
