@FallenFreya do you have any tips on pie crust? It might just be a weird day for me but I had a hell of a time with my pie crust today! Lol
I made 4 apple and 1 blueberry. The blueberry was the only one that was perfect

Most of the time I buy pre made pasty... yes you read that right. Even professional chefs have said they use it too.
I do have some baking beads tho, which I do use the rare occasion I do make my own pastry.

What excatly went wrong @LillyK99?

Well I think I was too anxious with my kids being loud! Lol I ended up using too much flour as I was kneading and rolling. The dough was getting hard and crumbly. I called my mom and she instructed me to use a little water but I decided just to make another batch to make up for the 1/4 of the original batch I botched. I actually put ear plugs in about half way through and it helped

Too much flour is a common mistake.
