Lucy: Instructions |
Lucy can be sewn by hand or by machine as you prefer.
Step 1: Constructing the Pocket Bag
- Bind the pocket slit.
- With wrong sides together stitch the two pocket pieces together around the outside.
- Bind the outside edge.
If you prefer you can french seam the outer edges of the pocket bag together.
bind the top and thread a tie through the binding
There are two methods for binding the top edge. One is to create a loop and the other is to bind with the ties. Read through both methods carefully and decide which one you wish to use.
Create a loop
- Cut a piece of binding the length of the top edge + seam allowance.
- Fold under the short edges of the binging and stitch in place.
- Bind the top edge of the pocket bag with the prepared binding making sure that the folded ends are left open.
- Thread a tie through the binding.
- Finish the tie ends.
use a piece of tape as binding and tie, sewing it down to the top and leaving the ends free
Bind with the ties
- Use a piece of tape as binding and tie, attach the pocket bag to the centre of the tape.
- Bind the top edge of the pocket bag whilst leaving the remainder of tape free.
- Finish the tape ends.
Step 3: Enjoy!
That's it! You're all done! Now go stuff your new pockets to the brim!
