Step 1: Prepare the Fabric
Start by selecting the fabric for your cargo pocket. Cotton or denim fabrics are commonly used for cargo pockets due to their durability. Wash and iron the fabric before you begin to remove any wrinkles and pre-shrink it if necessary.
Step 2: Measure and Cut
Determine the size of the cargo pocket you want. Measure the height and width you desire, and add seam allowances (usually 1/2 inch or 1 cm on each side) to the measurements. Use a ruler or measuring tape to mark the measurements on the fabric. Cut out two identical rectangular pieces for the pocket.
Step 3: Prepare the Flap
If you want to include a flap on your cargo pocket, cut out an additional rectangular piece of fabric. The length should be slightly longer than the width of your pocket, and the height should be according to your preference. Remember to add seam allowances.
Step 4: Hem the Flap (if applicable)
Fold and press the top edge of the flap fabric piece by about 1/4 inch (or 0.5 cm) towards the wrong side. Fold and press it again by the same amount. This will create a clean hem. Sew along the folded edge to secure the hem.
Step 5: Attach the Flap (if applicable)
Align the hemmed edge of the flap with the top edge of one of the pocket fabric pieces, right sides facing each other. Pin them together. Sew along the top edge with a straight stitch, leaving the sides open. Backstitch at the beginning and end of the seam for reinforcement.
Step 6: Create the Pocket
Place the two pocket fabric pieces together, right sides facing each other. Pin them together along the sides and bottom, leaving the top open. If you want, you can also add additional divisions inside the pocket by sewing vertical lines at regular intervals.
Step 7: Sew the Pocket
Using a sewing machine or hand sewing needle, sew along the sides and bottom of the pinned pocket pieces with a straight stitch. Reinforce the beginning and end of the seams with backstitching.
Step 8: Trim and Finish
Trim any excess fabric and threads. Press the pocket to remove any wrinkles and give it a neat appearance.
Step 9: Attach the Cargo Pocket
Decide where you want to place the cargo pocket on your garment. Position the pocket on the desired location and pin it in place. Sew the pocket onto the garment by stitching along the sides and bottom, close to the edge of the pocket. Be careful not to sew through the back layer of the garment.
Step 10: Final Touches
Remove any remaining pins, press the pocket once again, and give your garment a final ironing if needed.
