Vogue 1051 Finished!!

They are DONE!. OMG The welt pockets in the back had me so confused!! The pattern illustration of putting the welt together HAD to be upside down. Made no sense. By trial and error ( and checking out Erica B's review photos of the back welts) I figured it out...although mine look diff than Erica's.... Oh well. To be honest, I kind of almost finished them about 2 weeks ago... on the final try on after all hope for change in fitting was lost.... The waist was tooooo tight!! How did that happen? Dang vacation food! Ok, so after 2 weeks of dieting, I could snap them so I decided to forgive them, hem them and be done! Forgive my messy kitchen. I had no photographer and obviously no skill at taking photos of myself! I love them, and with a few pattern alterations (lower crotch, raise center back) am going to make another pair in denim.
