Pants fitting problems? Same! Here's how I made it wearable.

Getting these pants to fit was a NIGHTMARE! Simplicity 8605 was not made for me. lol But I persevered and figured out how to make these pants work! The pattern itself was an easy sew and great for beginners BUT I now know the importance of knowing your body measurements beyond just a waist and hip measurement when it comes to pants. I go over what I did to get these pants to fit because I didn't have spare fabric!
