This video has been so incredibly helpful! Other videos I've watched and webpages I've read about how to make a welt pocket make no sense to me, but this one helped me make my very first welt pockets on a quilted jacket I put together. Thank you for sharing. 🙂

@markmak7548 8 месяцев назад

I've seen loads of examples of how to sew a welt pocket and this by far is the best way to do it. It makes sewing fun a pleasure and fuss free . Also I love that you're video doesn't has horrid music playing with no dialogue. Straight forward plain easy to understand instructions. I am looking forward to seeing other videos that you have made . Kind regards from a gentleman in the UK. 👍🇬🇧🇺🇲

Thank you so much for this video. I’ve made 4 attempts to sew a welt pocket using the pattern instructions and they were terrible. I knew there must be a simpler way. Thank you

Added a pocket to inside of jacket for storing a tissue. Such clear instructions. Found it best to shorten stitch length around corners as it easier to get accurate angles. Thank you

Wow! I jumped off the couch as your video was ending to add a welt pocket to excersize pants! This is the easiest tutorial I’ve seen. I can’t wait to add pockets to my DIL leggings and she can stop putting her phone in her bra when teaching nursery school! LOL Thanks!!!!😊

Aha! Thank you for another great addition to our sewing arsenal, Catherine! Tailoring class 1985: Showed off my not-so-easy to make welt pocket to my Mom and her neighbor. My mom suggested I make a second pocket like the upscale store bought jackets 😮. Margaret saw my face and said, "Tell your mother, Then you wouldn't be able to afford it (the jacket)!" Still laughing after all these years.

@dreamyriver 3 месяца назад

Just what I need - making pyjama pants for my sons, they want pockets in them (of course) and there's no side seam. Didn't want to put a patch pocket on so this will hopefully be the solution! Thank you for the clear instructions :D

It's so pritty I can cry, as you always say. I wish I can send you some pictures. I love your instructions it' spot on. I alway watch your youtube on TV when I'm sewing in my sewing room. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I just realized that when I sent a comment, is showing as @charlesdelamotte my name is myong. I've been sawing many years because of necessry, I'm 4ft 11" tall and weigh about 110 pound. I always have hard time finding any clothes that fits me well. I've been makeing my own outfits over 25 year, but I was always afraid to try welt pockets, so many pieces and it never comes out good. But with your instruction. I did it at first try. Thank you again

@amymattaliano7634 Год назад

OMG, thank you so much for this video. I did get a little stuck a few times here and there, but thanks to RU-vid, I just ran it back and tried again. I did have to deviate a little bit near the end. But the end result was the same. Your video made this process so much easier. Thank you so much for making this video. It's definitely going to the top of my go-to tutorials for sewing.

@stupidlittleguitar 6 месяцев назад

I want to start making all my jeans with low profile welted cargo pockets for my phone on one side and wallet on the other. This is a great tutorial. I expect I will have to account for the weight of phone with at least a strip of velcro to seal the pocket - but I can't wait to get started. Subscribed and thank you !

@c2442l 2 месяца назад

This looks great! I want to add welt pockets to a pair of pants that I thrifted. Would I need to take the pants apart to make it easier to add welt pockets? I don’t have the same fabric to use since the pants were thrifted. The pants are dark green/black plaid, I think I will add black welt pockets in a similar weight fabric. Not sure whether to add to the front or back of the pants.

@marjoriejohnson7741 Год назад

This is the best welt pocket attempt I've seen. I thinking of using this same technique for double welt's ?

@briantaylor9475 Год назад

This is a double welt, also called a jetted, pocket. A single welt has a "flap" extending up from the lower opening.

@djstumpy7399 6 месяцев назад

Seems a very good way of doing welts. As a total newbie my question is , does this only work if the inside fabric is the same as the outside or can I still use a lining fabric. Asking because the mccalls pattern I have is got horrible square pockets on a nice trouser pattern so I want to modify it a bit.

@djstumpy7399 6 месяцев назад

Adding an additional after giving it a go and wow looks so cool. So I'm doing a cosplay based on a Red Dwarf character called Rimmer . Using your instructions and modifying a little, I've done the back pocket on my trousers, which was originally meant to be a square pocket. I've used iridescent fabric for the welt fold to concise with the stripe down the sides. My only downside is where I gave myself enough extra fabric for it to sew in the waist I didn't give enough seam allowance for sewing the top of the welt. But hey its a learning curve and now I know where I went wrong. Gr8 video that's given this chap confidence to try and learn.

@igz00 Год назад

I'm trying to add a pocket to a fleece halloween costume. Should I use fleece for the pocket or some other cotton? Can I use interfacing on fleece?

@CatherineSews Год назад

I think fleece works great with this technique. And you can use interfacing, but be careful that your iron isn't so hot that it can melt your fleece. A pressing cloth or parchment paper can help with this.
