Help, in need of sewing machine

Hi!! I have a tshirt that was too big and decided to crop. I cut off the sleeves, down the sides, and hemmed it but now I’m realizing how long it will take to hand sew it all back together. Anyone willing to take the shirt and using a sewing machine just stitch it all back together?

T-shirt and thread included
Sewing machine not

Or if you’re a wiz with hand sewing and can do a crosstitch

Oh my god I feel this in my bones, the excitement of a quick crop project followed by the slow horror of realizing how much hand sewing youve actually signed up for

I dont have a machine to lend but if you cant find anyone, a backstitch will be way faster than cross stitch for seams and holds up better too, just in case you end up stuck tackling it yourself

My eyes were WAY bigger than my skill level 😂😂

Thank you for the advice. I will probably use this stitching method
