How to upsize a pair of pants:

Written instructions:

These shorts were upsized by the owner of the Blue Corduroy blog, who explains how you can upsize your own pants in this upsizing tutorial.

This technique is quite simple: measure out how much extra fabric you need (+seam allowance), and cut corresponding strips of a fabric with a similar fibre and weight as your pants. Open up the side seams of your trousers, insert the strips you've cut, then finish up your seams and you're done.

This tutorial shows you how to do this on a pair of shorts, but this works on full-length pants and even skirts as well.

Some general notes:

If your insert fabric is too thin to match your trousers' fabric, try using two layers instead of one like the video above demonstrates.

For extra comfort, use strips twice as wide as the width you need to add and size them down again by adding shirring (or some other type of elastic insert). Do this at the waistband level to get a fitted waist and flared legs, or do this across the strip's entire length to get a pair of fitted trousers with a shirred panel. This technique is also great if your size fluctuates a lot because the elastic allows the pants to expand and shrink along with your body.

The image below (by Suzy Bee Sews) shows what this looks like on a dress, but the principle's the same for pants.
