Match the pockets to the correct leggings piece. If you would like, you can baste these two pieces together so they do not shift. I show two different pairs here just so you can easily see the actual fabric pieces. Take the outer pocket and place it on top of the other piece, aligning the bottoms and sides. Take one set and fold down the top 3/4' and then hem. You can use your cut out fabric to pattern match if needed.

Then use your pocket piece to cut out two mirrored image sets. Make sure to do both sides of your leggings and flip your piece to match the top angle. Use the pattern piece as a guide to cut out your pocket shape. Align the top centers of the leggings with the cut piece. You can either do this directly on the pattern or on the actual fabric.

Mark the middle of the top line of your cut piece.įind the center of your top line on your full leggings piece. If you laid the cut piece on top of the pocket piece, there would be a 6/8' difference around the sides and bottom. Your will now have one big pocket piece and a smaller, skinnier cut piece. Then take 3/8' off your cut piece, except for the top.Ĭut off the excess seam allowance. Trace around the cut piece with a 3/8' seam allowance on the two sides and bottom, but keep the top angle the same. We will now add the seam allowance in two ways. Cut this piece out and label it your cut piece. Then transfer the top line from your leggings pattern piece so you can mimic the top angle.

I traced around my phone to see about how big I wanted my final pocket to be. You'll need a piece of paper to make your pattern pieces and a ruler.

I'll walk you through how to add pockets to your own leggings without an outside seam. So as I was falling asleep the other night, I had a great idea for a way to include side pockets into the sundials, and I was very excited that my experiment turned out to be a success. More importantly, I use side pockets to hold my mic's battery pack while I teach barre at our local fitness studio. And even though there are so many cool ways to put a pocket in the back waistband for your phone, I need somewhere to comfortably store my hands while I'm standing and chatting. My hands do not know how to function when I wear something without pockets, so I have stayed away from all the cute leggings with no pocket option. Everyone who knows me knows I have to have pockets in every outfit.
