I know you're venting and may not want a 'solution'...but have you tried hemming your clothes with iron on hemming web (you may need to treat them with a fray checker if you cut the existing hem down first), or with lighter fabrics (it's worked with denim before but not always) you can even use a micropore or medical tape to hem. If you live in a moderately large city you could get a Taylor to do it, I don't know about where you're from but most dry cleaners do alterations at a reasonable price in my experience.

Fray Check

Depending on what you are sewing here are a few tools I'm so glad I have, with a few Amazon links to versions I have.

  • Cutting Mat & Rotary Blade: When I can, I prefer to cut with a rotary instead of shears.
  • Acrylic Ruler: Great with the Rotary and to see when cutting things like bias tape
  • Loop Turner: I like this one because you can do loooong things like lacing for the back of wedding gowns.
  • Point Turner: Obsessed with this little thing when making bows, waistbands, etc.
  • Magnetic Pin Cushion: As other people have mentioned, this is incredible.
  • Thimble: If you are hand sewing any finishing details, this is my favorite thimble! (I see you have a couple, but I'm obsessed with this comfy pink one)
  • Fray Block or Fray Check: Good for when you need to leave a raw edge on something.
  • Snippers: Perfect for trimming threads or small things your shears will be too big for. I LOVE this pair, they are inexpensive and sharp!
  • Good Iron and Ironing Board: Is it time for an upgrade? Press those seams!

    Have so much fun! Sewing has brought me so much joy and I hope it does the same for you.

Both those pieces are great, even the first one unfinished. A couple things I can think of to try that might help: maybe trace the edge of the felt with some kind of ravel stopper like this https://www.amazon.com/Dritz-674-Liquid-Sealant-0-75-Ounce/dp/B0019KBWA2 like maybe just put it on the cut edge, or a little way in on the under side of the fabric? It'll be hard to stitch through so a thin line to keep the edge clean but you'd kind of loop the stitch over it, if that makes sense?
Second, you might use a base fabric with a wider weave, like looser space between thread (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0771RF2QR though you can probably find something halfway between this and what you're showing in the second pic). Then you might try separating out the floss so you're only using 2 or three strands instead of all six, and use a smaller, VERY sharp needle (look for needs called 'sharps' these might be small but something like this https://www.amazon.com/Clover-Gold-Eye-Sharp-10/dp/B001K53MBS) . This will put a smaller, neater hole in the felt so there's less fraying. And the looser weave fabric means that even with paint you won't have to press as hard to get it through all the layers.
I hope some of this advice ends up useful. Good luck! I can't wait to see it finished.

I use dritz fray check on serged seams. To make it really durable though, I suggest going back to the corners where you backstitched and stitch again with a straight stitch, then use the fray check.
