pockets! pockets! We love pockets! Thank you!
Yessss :) that's what my little one says - "we love pockets!" lol :D
This is pretty cool! The next time I have to put in a pocket. I'm going to use this video.
Hi, Zelda! I am happy this will be useful to You :)
I make 12C gowns with pockets in the side seams. I sew the pockets to the gown first and then stitch from wrist to ankle going around the pocket.
I LOVE pockets, but unfortunately most of my soft pants and tights DONT have pockets.
But anytime I'm making pants I use your videos to help me put pockets, thanks Alisa
Shanaaz, hello there! Yes... with soft pants/tights - the pockets are easy seen through... which is why I assume a lot of them don't have them.
I vary between hand and spread hand when drafting pockets. I use a straight edge on the fabric and draft from there.
Yep, I also used to use my phone as a guide for the size of the pattern, but I have noticed due to the weight of the phone I rarely put it in my pockets - it is like logging a brick around, lol, even though my phone is not the newest.
Another beautifully constructed and concise tutorial, Alissa. Thank you!
Thank you again.
That is beautiful! I am looking forward to trying this on my current dress project that has no pockets.
Love pockets, love the little jacket ❤, love the tutorial - thanks again for making sewing thoughtful & creative Alisa
Thank you, Vanessa!
Thank you for the video, I'll be definitely using this method from now on.
My pleasure and I am happy you found this useful! I find this pocket to be such a great choice for nearly every garment :)
Watching this for the second time, I just noticed your serger threads created an Irish flag😛 🇮🇪
Love this technique.. I will add to my denim skirt .. Thank you Alisa 💕
wow, this looks so easy, i wish i have had this information earlier.. but for my next pocket i will watch your tutorial again. thanks a lot
I never thought of that waistband pocket idea; wonderful! I am working on a skirt right now for which that method would be perfect; thank you, SO much!👏🏻
Love pockets, great clear video Alisa 😊
That is my favorite side seam pocket.
Yes, it comes out so neat and nearly invisible!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity Absolutely! Amazingly clean and tidy. :)
Brilliant tutorial as always.
So many options:D thank you
Glad you like them!

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful tutorial with us Alisa.
Thank you for all your tips😊
Thanx
I reached 1K today! ❤❤❤
Hi Alisa how are you dear it's a very long time. I really love pockets but don't know how to make. Thanks for this video
Great video !!!
I haven't been getting notifications!!! So glad to see this video!
RUclips does that sometimes what you might want to do is turn off the notification bell get out of the app go back into the app and turn the notification bell back on
Any special considerations for a jersey knit dress?
Hi Alisa. I'm curious about what iron you are using and what you like about it. I am not sure if you have mentioned it before, so I am asking here.
Hello there, Eilene! I had a cheap Black&Decker (I think) for years, until it broke some time last year, so we went to Walmart for a new iron and I saw this CHI iron that looked like it could steam really well, at least from a selection that they had, which wasn't very large. It was about $80, which felt like a hefty price for an iron, but honestly, when I saw how well it steams - my world turned upside down, he he :) I don't know if there are better irons, and there probably are, but I do like this one and hope to use it for a while. I would say that's what I like about it the most, steam and heat settings for different fibers - synthetics, wool, cotton, linen, so that way I don't have to guess. I hope this helps :)
Yes, thank you. It helps a lot.
Funny thing: I actually have a Black and Decker that I have had for a really really long time (25?+ years) it's starting to show some issues so I'm going to be shopping around.
@@eileneblanc5565 wow, 25+ years! You know... That's how it was when I was growing up, but not anymore... They don't make electronics (and not just electronics) they way they used to. Now a lot of things don't last half the time they used to, no matter how much you take care of them.
And much mm yiu have regarding Thread tension, width and length. Pls dont mind,vthat I ssked these.. 😊
Hi Alisa, o loved your frilled necjlines. I am planning similar to my daugter. As O pbserved in your videos, yiu have ywo sewing machines know? Which are they? How many built in stitches you jave on each machine respectively? Ii just gond of built in stitches. Thatz why , I asked.😊
Here's the video about the overview of both of my sewing machines :) - ruclips.net/video/ynkUdCA6eSI/видео.html
Can you tell me how I get my free template for a no show side seam? I am a member but can't seem to find it. I want to put it in a skirt I am making. Thank you.
Hi Kim, sorry about that, but I never mentioned a template for this pocket in the video as I show very detailed how to make your own. I do however have 2 other pocket templates for Members, one is a patch pocket and the other one is a simple side seam pocket template, both are on Google Drive in the "Instruction sheets for garments" folder. One is named "patch pocket" and the other one is "side seam pocket" and if your files are sorted in the alphabetical order then you will see it towards the bottom of the screen. You can sue both of these templates for your needs, but you will probably need to adapt them, they might be too small for modern phones, if you'd like to have a phone in your pocket. You will also need to adapt them in case you want your pocket to be anchored at the waist as in this tutorial, but that is a quick fix as per this tutorial :) I hope this helps :)
@ThoughtfulCreativity thank you so much. I just misunderstood in thinking you said there was a template.
No worries at all! :) the good thing - it so quick to make one, just pencil it in around your hand/or phone/or wallet :) I am sure your skirt will be fabulous!
I thought you were also going to show us how to put that pocket in the jacket
Hello there :) it is done exactly the same way, just in a different seam :)
@@ThoughtfulCreativity well one day maybe you could show us most of us are visual people 😎
You can actually see the jacket and the pocket in this video, hope this helps you :) - ruclips.net/video/J53f24d4DvQ/видео.html
@@ThoughtfulCreativity thank you for that. I need to get back to garment sewing, I switched over to quilting table runners, making potholders, oven, mitts, which, of course are a lot of fun, but I need some clothes 😂😂😎👍🏻
