According to my measurements, I should make the small but I'm wondering if I should try the xsmall? I'm 5'4" and 110lbs… which size would you recommend?

Now what I do is I immediatley take out the excess in pant legs by slashing the center of the pant leg (on the pattern) and overlapping. Then I add what I took out to the side of the leg because if its too big or wide after the side is easier to take out then the middle of the leg where that fabric tends to pool.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13739107395724334908noreply@blogger.com
