pocket closeup

The pockets are pleated at the top edge and then edge is turned under and topstitched. Of course, this was done before you attach to jacket.

I basted the side and bottom edges of the pockets that I turned under. Then I pinned them on the jacket. There is a pocket flap that requires a buttonhole and button.

I need to search for the right buttons for this jacket. So I am coming to a halt until I can find what is going to work.

  1. I really like that style of pockets - your jacket is shaping up really nicely. I'll be interested to see your choice of buttons - sometimes I spend ages looking in lots of different shops to find just the right buttons and often they can turn out to be really expensive!

  2. I like those pockets also. Good luck with your button search.
