Supplies
Suggested Fabrics:
Exterior: Medium to heavy weight woven fabric with structure and no/little stretch: eg. wool coating, twill, denim, velvet, canvas, soft shell, oilcloth.
Lining: Lightweight woven fabrics with no stretch: Tencel, Bemberg, suit lining, satin, sateen, silk cotton, viscose rayon. Fuzzy, thick linings such as minky or sherpa are not recommended.
Fabric Requirements:
Scraps! If you are sewing a garment and switching out the pockets, it is likely that no additional fabric will be needed.
If purchasing contrast fabric, up to 12" (30cm) of both exterior and lining.
Supplies Notions:
- Spool of coordinating thread
- Buttons or snaps for pockets with flaps - optional
- Zipper for zippered pocket
Make old things new again! Twig & Tale patterns pair wonderfully with recycled fabrics. Look to gently-used denim, corduroy or wool pants. Cotton and linen shirts make lovely pocket linings, and buttons and trim can be repurposed too.
