Great job!

I did the same thing years ago with my daughter when she was about 12. I remember her exclaiming to me, "I "have to" learn to sew?" with her hands on her hips. She went through many hard times of ripping out, etc. until she got seams right. In the end she learned to make beautiful clothes for her self, earned money sewing for others at college, worked in a wedding gown business for a while. Then, she and I had the pleasure of sewing her wedding gown together! Sewing was a skill passed down to me and I wanted her to have the same skill taught to her. If she didn't use it when she grew up, it didn't matter to me. At least she would have the skill.
