ABSTRACT:
In a method of constructing pockets, a pocket blank is preferably folded first along both longitudinal edges, and then transversely so that the folded edges are inside the two resultant pocket panels. Preferably, the lower edge sections of the pocket panels are adhesively secured before the inner pocket panel is adhesively secured on the inside of a garment wherein a pocket is desired. Following formation of a slit having Y-shaped ends in the adhesive connection between the garment and inner pocket panel, the flaps formed thereby are folded inwardly and adhesively secured to produce a pocket slot. In accordance with the preferred construction, a pocket welt is then adhesively secured across the bottom of the pocket slot. If desired, another pocket welt or a pocket flap extending through the pocket slot can be adhesively secured across the top of the pocket slot. A facing strip can then be placed over the welt(s), flap and/or remainder of the pocket slot, if desired. Stitched tacks are provided at both ends of the pocket slot through the garment, inner pocket panel, and desired pocket components. The upper section of the outer pocket panel is then closed and adhesively secured at least to the upper end and remaining edge sections of the inner pocket panel to complete construction of the pocket.
