I decided, before sewing the skirt, that I wanted on seam pockets. My favorite skirt has these, and I wanted some just like those. I got out my sewing book, The Complete book of sewing, and read all the directions. I turned that favorite skirt inside out, and traced the pockets as the basis of a pattern, and carefully cut out the pieces from the scraps leftover from cutting out the dress pieces. I followed the instructions in the book, very carefully, I thought...
I decided not to rip them out and redo them--I'll use them as a design opportunity--possibilities I have in mind include sewing them down with a decorative stitch in a cute color, or with a cute seam binding. I'll see what I think the rest of the dress is sewn together.
