The slant pocket is the “darling” of pockets. \u00a0It is easy to make, slimming and practical. \u00a0It is the type of pocket we wish we had when pockets are missing on a pair of pants.<\/p>\n

Below, I am showing you the fashion fabric project as well as the mockup in white and using black thread so you can see the stitching more clearly.<\/p>\n

The steps below continue on from Part One of the sew along: \u00a0Walking Shorts Pattern & Sew Along \u2013 Part One<\/a><\/p>\n

Step Three: \u00a0Attaching the Slant Pockets<\/h2>\n

Apply a small amount of fusible interfacing<\/a> along the opening of the pockets on the wrong side of the print.\"slant

Lay the front of the pants prints side up.<\/p>\n

\"slant

Place front facing\u00a0of the pockets aligning it with the slant pocket. \u00a0Print side down. I have marked an X to\u00a0represent the wrong side. \u00a0Sew at whatever seam allowance\u00a0you have chosen. \u00a0If you are doing a mockup, sew at 5\/8″ where the pins are located, keep a strict seam allowance.<\/p>\n

Separate the pocket from the pants and iron the seam allowance away from the pocket.<\/p>\n
