Years ago I went to a convention and instead of taking the wise advice of start with hemming and taking small steps I tried making a full on jacket. Thankfully it was Merlin’s jacket from the show so it naturally had a ragedity look to it. Most of the seems I did looked pretty bad if you looked close but overall it didn’t fall apart and everyone knew what it was right away so I called it a not terrible idea and haven’t used a sewing machine in the 14 years since.
Doing something like the curtains where I’d have to see it every day I would want to do a much better job. But thanks for the list of need to haves, hopefully I’ll add that to my to do list and who knows, maybe someday I’ll make useful things like you, haha
