Letting Out the Seams of a Tight Pants (Hip and Tummy)

Dear Maureen,

 
Usually ready made pants have narrow seam allowances. If it is possible to let out from the side, center back and inseams, try doing so. Let out the seams by basting and do a fitting to make sure, before sewing the seams by machine. 
 
Happy sewing,
