What was your inspiration?

To try to get a pair of pants to fit my ageing body! I would, ideally, like to have the pants reach to about where the elastic is - at my non-existent waist.
I used a super-long zipper that I had in a box!
I think is not too bad overall but I would like the pants to come up a little higher at my 'waist'. Perhaps I will try increasing the whole length above the crotch and try again.

What are you most proud of?

Nothing in these photos!! Even worse now the four photos are there!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I have questions rather than advice! I had four photos (front, rear, two sides) but three of the pictures were deemed "too tall to look good on Craftsy" when this one was accepted? (all are about the same size)

OK I found out I can "edit' my project but still can't see what "too tall" means. I will try cropping the other photos are bit more but in fact the one here is "taller" than the others. Cropping further didn't work. I will wait from advice from someone more knowledgeable!

I found a place to ask Craftsy about the photos and they advised that photos should be close to 'square'. I retrieved the originals and cropped them to "nearly square" so now you have the untidy sewing room background as well.
