Don't you hate when you find cute pants or skirts but they're missing pockets? This happens all the time to women and it's actually a very simple fix. There are multiple of ways to add pockets to your garments but this one is my favorite because it's hidden at the side seams and easy to do! Hope you enjoy this sewing tutorial and try it out!

I have an old wool coat where the old pockets have holes in them, so I've been thinking about putting in new pockets. Maybe that would be an interesting subject?

What about for interior chest pockets for a coat or jacket? So jealous of men’s outerwear for having them 🙄

ABSOLUTELY YES PLEASE

Make sure to use fabric that is equal or lighter weight than your garment. If your fabric is too heavy then it’ll show through your garment on the outside

When I added pockets to a skirt before, I got a little greedy and made them too big. I thought bigger the better! But actually when I put my phone in the pocket it was sitting too deep so it felt dangly haha. I know we all love pockets but don’t make the same mistake as me and make sure the pocket size isn’t too big guys! 😂

Wow love this I have to have pockets on even my pjs or I just don’t buy the clothes! Any suggestions for skirts that only have a single seam? I’ve sewn a few skirts for my teen granddaughter but she prefers pockets.

Great tutorial. Just curious, why not sew the pocket bag together first before attaching to the seam?

@coolirpa 9 ай бұрын

To create the opening, it needs to be sewed to the front and back side seams so it easier to sew it like this. Kinda confusing unless you try it for yourself haha
