    I did the same thing when I started. But it doesn't look as good as yours. I just started cutting material and practice making long straight stitches. To me the long straight stitches are the hardest.

    I'd say it looks like your soon to be made gear will work out and not fail you. I think you are ready to go!

    Tip: As to your tarp, you could place your triangles under your hems (before hemming), that'd probably look better. And use black thread for the tarp!
