To The Seamstresses In the Audience

[pt_tangles]

I have this pair of forest green corderoy pants that I absolutely love. Unfortunately, when I bought them, it was skirt season for me, and when I finally got around to wearing them, I had already lost a ton of weight. Now they look like a parachute!

Is there an easy way to make a pair of denim cut pants about 4 or 5 sizes smaller without wrecking the lines?

Find a local seamstress/tailor and have THEM do all that work?

Bah, it would probably be cheaper to just buy a new pair. I hate getting rid of new clothes, though. It is the only bad part about losing weight :)

Hey, do you have a local FreeCycle group? That way you're giving to someone who needs what you can't use. I need to type up the next listing myself. I've got a handful of really nice bras that are too big (my daughter's foster parents didn't know how to measure properly for her) and a bunch of other clothes that nobody here is going to use.

I don't know about Freecycle, but I have a bag of clothes set to go down to the Sally An. I will prolly stick them in there. Or in one of the Diabetes clothing drop boxes they have set up all over town.
