F***K!

I just cut four pieces from my maybe too little inner tent fabric. I know I made the piece 400x113 centimetres. I folded it double and cut out the wedge shaped pieces. So now I should have pieces that are 2 metre long, right?
No, I have pieces that are 173 centimetres. WTF??!!
Useless pieces I might add, since the grade of the sloping side would be different if they were 2 metres long.
The fates do not want me to make an inner ceiling for the pavilion, that much is clear.

It's an inner tent to the huge white pavilion that is seen on some of these (http://www.strakt.com/~bjorn/nylose/Bilder/Visby04/) pictures (including indoor pictures when our group had breakfast inside one morning).
I have enough fabric to make the ceiling and I wasn't planning to make inner walls and floor for the whole pavilion this year anyway (the sleeping areas already have floor and walls.)

Actually it turned out to be bad math or bad thinking. Since the measuring tape is 1,5 metres you add 50 cm to get 2 metres. So to get full metres you add 50 cm, that was easy, unfortunately I didn't think about the fact that when I doubled the "measuring tape lengths" I also had to double the added length. So I cut it off after 3,5 metres. Stupid!!!
