I need to take in the side seams with pockets about 1" what is the best way to handle that? I will be taking them in right below the pocket.

Thank you

Carol

Re: Taking in the Seams with Pockets

HI Carol,

In this situation you need to take a look and see exactly how the pocket is sewn in place, so that you can replicate it when you take in the excess fabric at the side seams.

It is best to work on one side first, this way you have the other side as reference.

Happy sewing,

Nehzat
