My problem is nothing fits in pants. Middle age spread has 
found the lower half but not my waist. Hip huggers would 
solve this except I have an extra 2" in back to waist 
length so shirts don't stay tucked. Overalls ride up. I am 
most comfortable in dresses, but they aren't too practical 
around here. I am going to start sewing for myself next 
year.--Sage
