Double jetted pockets


Friday started double jetted pockets. There is a lot more going on behind the scenes on a pocket than you would think, its a mess back there. Such a difference this week to the last week of last term. I’m totally shit now whereas before I thought it was kind of coming together for me. My jets are passable but when it comes to sewing up the pocket bag at the end the machine just pulls it all over the place and wrecks anything you’ve done before.












All looks good on the front but from the back the pocket bag gets all messed up. You’re meant to sew around the red line but this isnt the view you have when you’re sewing. You sew along a line at the back of a seam and then hope that it didn’t move around too much on you. There are a lot of layers of fabric going on back there that its easy to misjudge whats going on.



Too close to the edge 

Too curvy 

Almost made it

Success
