Very cute project. I also stab myself when I have to sew. The embroidered planet looks much better than the printed one so a fortuitous oops there.

This was not in the realm of doing until you mentioned a bag. A bag with LED strips to light up the interior... that could be useful. Maybe a small solar panel to keep the batteries charged.

That's an awesome idea to light up the inside of a bag, maybe using a LDR just inside so when it's opened and gets a bit of light it automatically turns on.

I thought it looked better embroidered too

Eva Hakansson did an 'interior light' for her 3D printed handbag a few years back.
