    This is probably the best video online about how to make side seam pockets, short, clear and easy to follow. One suggestion would be that if you are ever thinking of re-making this video, to perhaps use fabric that clearly has a right and wrong side, as in a print fabric. Understanding how to get the right sides INSIDE the pocket can be tricky for a newbie.

    Best, easiest to clearly understand tutorial on putting in pockets. Their inside/outside nature makes my brain feel pretzeled when I try to imagine them!

      Yes I know exactly what you mean, I often watch Evelyn Wood of vintage sewing school and she takes forever to get to the point it gets to be obnoxious

    I did this today for the first ever pocket I sewed into my first ever me-made dress (the pattern doesn't include pockets, sacrilegious!), and it worked like a charm! The instructions were so easy to follow and the result looks great. Thanks a lot for making this video!

    Short and simple, just the kind of videos I love. No need for 15 minutes videos for a 2m project. Thank you for a great short and sweet tutorial!

    I have read and reread my pattern on how to put the pockets into a pair of kids' pants and this video saved me. very clear and easy to understand. By far the easiest sewing video that I have seen yet.
    Thank you so much

    This is my go-to video whenever I set pockets into my pants. Straight forward and to the point, clear as a bell without a lot of talky talky, and the camera angle is just perfect. Thanks!

    Thank you. I wanted to make a side seam pocket on a skirt I was sewing. The pattern did not include a pocket. Your video was so helpful.

  • @eltanz251
    @eltanz251 Před 2 lety +1

    Great reminder of how to- but delighted with your demo of adding the 'extra' stitching to retain the pocket inside! Well done!

    @tracyroake2815 Před rokem

    I agree that was the best and easiest and clearly understandable description of how to put in a pocket! I made a pair of pants today, a prototype for something I'm making, and I've done it before. I couldn't figure out how to do it! And finally I just left the pockets off. I should have come to you first! Now I know when I make the actual pants what to do! Thank you so much, great video!

    @jesshothersall Před 3 lety +2

    Thank you, really helpful, though the dark fabric, and same appearence on both sides, got me a bit confused, and I couldn't see the top stitching, so still not sure whether it shows from outside or not? Very helpful on technique though.

    • @TheAwlNighter1
      @TheAwlNighter1  Před 3 lety +2

      An overcast stitch or pinking shears are probably the easiest ways. Depending on the pocket shape, you could also bind all the seam allowances. It really depends on the project and how fancy you want to get!
