I cut up an old too big shirt to make two new-for-us shirts a better fit.
Tall people have it rough.
I'm a beginner (to machine sewing) - and it's astonishing how many mistakes can someone make doing a simple project like this.
It is far from perfect, but as my Mom would say: nobody going to tell you to stop and giving you a better one for free.
That's totally true! After each mistake the frustration level increases and that's not helpful either.
Thank you!

On making mistakes, one of my big lessons what that those happen a lot more often if you are tired, and tend to increase dramatically once they start happening. So I learned was to watch out for being tired and especially stop as soon as sensible after making a mistake that "shouldn't" have happened (I tend to get the seam ripping done and anything similarly tedious, so my next start is on something I want to do). Trying to work through tiredness or setting "I must finish this today" goals is just doomed.
I like your Mum's comment :)
