You'll have to share your recipe, if it ends up being a keeper! I have the hardest time finding jeans that fit just right, too! I'm 4'11" on a good day. Every pair I buy has to be hemmed.

Just who do they make today's jeans to fit, anyway? <br /><br />As for me?

I've had some luck with basic jeans at Macy's or Herberger's.

Elastic waist and stretchy fabric for me. I have them in every color denim they come in and wear them pretty much every day but Sun (and sometimes even then, haha) At 5 ft. 6 and 1/2 inches I never have any problem finding these jeans as I think I am the average height for a woman. You lady have been very productive today! I forced myself to cut out the batting for the rag quilt this morning before we left for lunch and a movie, having already cut the front and back pieces yesterday. Now somewhere in the next couple of hours I have to find the time to embroider one of the squares to say, Jesus loves Me, so that I will be all ready to whip the quilt together on Mon, and finish it up by Tues. Tomorrow will be church and then Charger football. Hope the rest of your day went well and you got lots of stitching time! `Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09836655708421528876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433230603334501738.post-40831215615309391452014-01-11T15:43:00.543-06:002014-01-11T15:43:00.543-06:00Glad to see your "randomness" is back!

I am the same way with jeans and I don't have a waist so when the waist fits everything else is baggy. Hope you like your new recipe.

My favorite jeans now come from Kohls. Petite. I think the ones I like the best are Lee Jeans. I have tried so many and they all have that problem of riding down around my hips. Now that I have got these I am one happy camper. In the meantime I feel guilty at all of the ones I have out in my shed. <br />I do hope you find some. Who knew that it would get so hard to find jeans. Have a lovely day,<br />I got my chicken pen cleaned, that is about it so far.
