Don't feel bad! If she is new to sewing, then learning to prioritize projects and adjust expectations is an important skill to have. One always gets a bit overzealous in the planning stage but achieving it can be a serious time commitment. As long as you are nice about it (and I have no doubt you were), this will be a good experience for her and in future she can better understand how long a project will take.
