ABSTRACT:
In a method of constructing pockets, a pocket blank is preferably folded first along both longitudinal edges, and then transversely so that the edges are inside the two resultant pocket panels. The inner pocket panel is adhesively secured to the inside of a garment, followed by formation of a slit of predetermined shape in the adhesive connection therebetween. The edges of the slit are then folded back and adhesively secured to produce a pocket slot. Preferably, a pocket welt is secured next across the bottom of the slot. If desired, another welt or a pocket flap can be secured across the top of the slot followed by placement of a facing strip thereover. Stitched bar tacks are then provided adjacent the slot, after which the pocket panels are closed and sealed to complete construction of the pocket.
In another embodiment, a pocket blank is positioned beneath a pocket opening formed in the garment panel. The lower edge of the opening is then folded back and adhesively secured to one end of the pocket blank. If desired, a stitch can be added to reinforce interconnection of the garment and pocket blank. A facing strip is attached near the other end of the pocket blank so that the strip covers the pocket opening after the pocket blank is transversely folded and sealed to complete construction of the pocket.
