Recycled denim backpack and Playing with my embroidery machine

I've been thinking about making a denim backpack, this is one style.

 I have another one in my head too, unfortunately I don't sketch.

I've also been playing with my embroidery machine. I would like to make interesting labels. I need to learn a little bit more about how to customize it. I can't wait till my kids are old enough to help me figure it out!

 

 I'll try to keep posting my progress.
