How do I increase the size of my '/home' partition?

I installed Trisquel as dual boot with Windows 7. Not long after that, I deleted the Windows partition and expanded the '/' partition. However, I discovered that the '/home' partition cannot be expanded.
Today, I received a message from my computer that the '/home' directory has very little free space. What should I do?
Hello, I was wondering where your Windows partition was? Usually Windows
likes to be in the first partition using the NTFS file structure which can
cause problems with Linux. If you can get Trisquel on the first partition
and the extended as a swap you could have a large home partition.
This is off the subject, I used a 20 Gig drive to install Trisquel on and
let it do the partitioning to see what it would do. I checked the
partitioning with another program and ended up with the first as a 6.1 gig
partition, and the extended, with a small swap partition of a little over
550 meg and a HUGE home partition of the rest around 14 gig! I haven't
snooped enough on Trisquel to see if I can see it from the program. But if
you can install the program like I did, you would have a large home
partition. Usually I like to setup the partitioning manually so this needs
to be investigated further.

Please, could you do:
# fdisk -l
# mount -l
on the terminal as root and post it?
NOTE: I dont know how to make "code" on this forum
Thank you for replying.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Trisquel. Now I no longer have disk space issues.
