Hang on to this little project and watch it get personal over the years. Sometimes that is the most gratifying work you can do for your self, and when you get around to trading your stuff you will bring value to other people. There is no greater compliment that can be offered you than when someone lights up over your work that they bought or traded for.
Good luck and tight stitches.
