Say hi to By Mykikou on IG and thank her by following her account.

1- I draw the pocket on the front.
2- I transfer and cut out the pocket.
3- I cut out the opening of the pocket on the front.

4- I calculate the pocket edge band.
5- I cut the pocket edge band, the front with the pocket opening and the pocket.
6- I fold the pocket edge strip right sides together and pin it on the pocket opening starting with the ends and the middle.

7- I assemble the pocket edge strip and the front.
I topstitch.
8- I place the pocket pattern and trace with a soap (or erasable pencil) the shape of the pocket on the front.
9- I place the pocket under the front (right side up). I pin then sew the pocket on my tracing with a decorative stretch stitch or with the sealer.

10- I join the edges of the pocket to the front at 5 mm.
11- I can add a label, a ribbon, or an appliqué to personalize more.
12- I finish assembling Dulce following the tutorial. Dulce is finished!
