Sewing 101: Simple Front Pocket Tutorial

Welcome to See Kate Sew! If you’re new here, sign up for my email newsletter for access to free patterns, tutorials and all the latest sewing news! Tour my sewing room HERE!

I’m continuing Recess Raglan week into a second week, but only for 2 more days! I had more to share! Today is another pocket option, the simple front pocket tutorial! You can really add this to any pattern, it’s a simple sewing skill that can add a lot to any garment.

I love using pockets for accent fabric, especially if you have a little scrap of fabric lying around that you can’t bear to part with.

After I made this shirt, I wasn’t quite sure about the scale of the pocket to the shirt, this one might be a little too big. But it is enough to hold lots of things! The pocket piece comes in 8 sizes, so you can choose how big or small you want the pocket to be!
