I Need Longer Legs

When it comes to legs, mine are apparently too short.
Every time I buy new pants, they are too long and I have to hem them.
I just finished hemming my new pants and realized that if my legs were longer this wouldn't be a task I'd ever have to tackle.
Good thing I know how to sew and don't have to pay someone to hem them for me.
My only other alternative would be getting longer legs

You could always get some stilts.

My legs are long..my trunk is a little short though, however, average to tall fit me pretty well. Petite is always too short.

@Marilynda1225 Actually average fits me well most of the time.

That's the problem I have. Petite is too short and average too long by mere inches

Same here, I only have a few pair I didnt have to hem. I also learned to do this at a young age, from my mother doing it for me as a kid.

My mom taught me to sew when I was young and it's come in handy throughout the years

It's expensive if you have to bring things to the tailor for alterations

And pants are too long for me too most of the time. But my main issue is I want to get rid of my chest

I try to shrink them in the dryer before I hem them. Being able to dry my pants is a plus

It can be hard to find pants in the right length. I usually just let them drag.

You need to buy pants with shorter legs. I fully understand. I am having to do this all the time myself. It's part of being a short person. I guess!!

I have the longer legs @Marilynda1225 (34"). Most of the time pants I buy are too short. If I do buy some that would be longer, then they are too big in the butt and waist. So I'm screwed.
