Cuada Upcycled Denims Shoulder Bag

Back View of Bag

I made this Bag from a mix of old Denims, and fabric scraps. I cut around the garment pockets and attached them to some gray cotton and a print fabric that I had cut from a hem. Then I used freehand stitching to blend the edges together.

Pattern or design used: My own design - Cuada Shoulder Bag
