How to Sew Designer Jean Pockets … Part 2 Adding the Coin Pocket

Here is part 2 for finishing off the front of your designer jean pockets.  This video will show you how to add a coin pocket, which is totally optional.  Sometimes I add a logo instead, just depends what kind of mood I am in :)    Of course I have to show off a few other features on the Brother Dreamweaver XE VM6200D, like using the V-Sonic PenPal to determine how wide my zigzag stitch will be – you really have to see it to believe it.  Now, I just have to finalize the last of the Angela Wolf Jean Patterns so we can ship them out soon, wish me luck!  xoxo Angela

Brother™ has provided me with the DreamWeaver XE, but all opinions expressed are entirely my own

Fashion and sewing have been a passion of mine since childhood. “I used to sneak fabric out of my mother’s closet, but I was too young to understand patterns. So I would lie on the fabric, have my younger sister's draw an outline of my body with chalk onto the fabric, and then my creations would begin. I am happy to say my designing has come a long way since then :)” In 1994, with a bachelor degree in business management from Illinois State University and a brand new sewing machine and serger as a graduation gift from my family, I started ABO APPAREL. I began with women’s custom apparel and thru the year’s added alterations and wardrobe planning. An A-list clientele has given me over sixteen years of experience dressing and fitting many diverse women and has enabled me to understand the different styles that compliment each individual. Impeccably tailored jackets with beautiful silk, hand dyed charmeuse linings are a signature of my work and many of my designs also include intricate hand beading and custom trims. Styles range from Casual Resort Wear to Extravagant Evening Wear, always enhancing every woman that wears my apparel.

  1. Why is it that womens jeans have such shallow front pockets? I like to keep things in mine (like my car keys in one pocket and lip gloss in the other one). I love my jeans and wear them ALL the time. Anyway, is there a way to make front jeans pockets deeper without ruining the pocket altogether? Please email me as I am not on Facebook or other sites like it. Thank you!!
