I know that there are not that many big girls on the board, but I need pants. I am big girl size wise but I am short so most pants just puddle around my feet.
Can anyone recommend a store where I can find pants for the petite plus.
I am 5'3 (I think)

You could try Petite Sophisticate.

I think Petitie Sophisticate only goes to size 16. You can try a major department store. Old Navy and Gap now carry up to 20, I think, in various lengths. New York and Co carries petites,a nd so do plus sized stores like Avenue and Lane Bryant.
This is a nice site also, but I don't know if they have petite length.

When you can't find petite, use good old stitch wichery!!

I tried the stitch witchery but I have trouble getting the legs even.
I am afraid to buy clothes online b/c of my height and weight. I am afraid that they won't fit because different styles and brands are cut different.
the khakis that I am wearing now are Lee tall & low rise, but they fit me perfectly. the legs are the perfect length and the waist falls directly on mine.
and in some petite pants the legs are too short.

I have a lot of petite plus relatives. Here is a list:
Casual Corner Woman
Liz Claiborne Outlet
Jones New York Outlet
Talbots Woman
The Avenue
Dress Barn Woman
JCPenney
Sears
Lane Bryant
Kohl's
You should also find a selection at your local department stores (i.e. Dillards and Belks).
