How to Sew In-Seam Pockets (that are nearly invisible on the outside of the garment!)

Рет қаралды 14,004

Күн бұрын

In today's video, I'll be showing you how to sew in-seam pockets. In-seam pockets can be added to the side seam of a dress, skirt, pants or shorts. They are nearly invisible when wearing and do not alter the style lines of a garment. Which means, because all that stitching is on the interior, it doesn't have to be perfect or topstitched, like a patch pocket, making it very beginner friendly.

Really clear and concise instructions, my only gripe would be if you did a close up of the stitching, but failing that you have made me more confident in tackling the pockets on my sons coat. Thank you.

Thanks so very much for the tutorial. My husband wanted some pockets in his pajama bottoms, and there you were this morning when I opened my email! 😀

This made so much sense to me. Thank you !! I couldn't work out which way around to place the fabric on a dress I was making (right & wrong side) it worked perfectly !

Thank you so much or this super clear video. Despite reading so many ritten instructions I couldnt figure out the stitching. The reason being that our Indian dresses - kurtas - have a curved hipline and all pocket templates have a straight edge. The seam allowance is also always 5/8th to one inch. So I always made a mess of inseam pockets and just avoided them. I think I can have the courage to try this out! Thank you again!! P.S. I loved the sound of your voice 🙂.

Lovely tutorial. I have a pattern for a child’s hoodie. The front has two pieces with the pocket in between. The problem I have is I now have to top stitch the seam and the pocket. I cannot figure out how to topstitch the hidden pocket without stitching the opening up. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi. Years ago I had a lovely skirt pattern that closed with a button on the side. It was so clever, because the waistband was attached to the pocket which allowed it to open wide enough to get over my hips. Have you seen this before?

Yes, the pattern Megan Nielsen has a skirt and pants with that style of design. It's so clever. I've made the pants and really like them. The pattern names are the Wattle Skirt and Flint Pants.

Hi! This was SO helpful. What do you suggest if we do not have a serger? TIA

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I'd use a zig zag stitch or another overcast stitch on a conventional machine. I believe I have a video about seam finishes here on the channel.

@terrydowney1350 2 жыл бұрын

You can buy a foot for your regular machine that overcasts the edges of your fabric. I finish all my seams that way. I also have a foot that both overcasts and trims the fabric, which is handy if you have fitted your pattern perfectly and won't need to alter the garment after sewing it, and it's perfect for projects like pillow cases.

Very informative. Please show us how to put a inside pocket on a garment where there is no seam.

Hi Kelsey, I believe that would be a technique called a welt pocket. I don't sew them very often but my friend Amy has a tutorial here on KZfaq kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qq6oY92j3bSwkmQ.html
