Perfect Pockets - Adding Hidden Side Pockets Into Side Seams

Hi Everyone! This week I have a fun and easy pocket style to share with you - Hidden side seam pockets! This tutorial can work for any garment for any size doll or person, it's super easy to add a pocket into an existing side seam. Watch the video below for a step by step look at this technique. 

 

Week Three: Watch the video and then go find an item to add a side seam pocket! You can use any of the patterns listed below or any ready made item you'd like that has side seams.

Pattern Overview: Below you'll find a list of the Liberty Jane patterns that include side seams in the design.

    Resources (other tips & tricks):

    • Tiny 4" embroidery scissors are a must! I try to keep a super sharp pair on hand at all times. They are great for trimming and clipping very close to the stitching. 
    • A good steam iron!

     Week Three task:

    • Watch the video and then go find an item to add a side seam pocket! You can use any of the patterns listed below or any ready made item you'd like that has side seams.
