Does anyone make trousers

I just cannot get any trousers that fit dd 5- she is super slim and even leggings don't seem to stay up - adjustable waists are no good as I have to pull them in so much that she find all the bunched up bit uncomfortable.
Anyway does anyone make trousers?

have you thought about making some? thy really can be super easy. 2 pieces of cut fabric, 3 seams, turn over waistband and cuffs on legs.

did you want help with a pattern?

I have thought about it - bought the material and made a sort of pattern, but just feel too tired to actually dust down the sewing machine....bit like the jumper I started knitting ds a year ago

i think you should give it a go. once you have a pattern that fits well you will be able to whip up a new pair any time you want in about 45mins.

and think of all that funky fabric you can buy.

I agree with moocow, DD1 is veyr tall and slim so trousers that are the right length fall off her.
Do you have any trousers that fit her? They don't even need to be the right length, just fit round her waist and bum?
then go here it really is super easy.

fleece or strechy fabric can be sewn slimmer and is more forgiving if it is not exact.

yes i did that method of pattern for DS when he was very little.
