For your very best impression, please consider this Confederate housewife kit.
The pictures don't quite do it justice. Sorry for the photography.
Sewn with silk on silk embroidered Stainless Banner, Bonnie Blue, and First National flags and patterned after the Confederate housewife on page 213 of EOG. The removable needle case has a hidden pocket that may be stocked with all the necessary items and used for long marches where every inch and ounce matter. Because of all the intricate work involved, I only make one or two of these a year.
