Pocket Masterclass

Beginner to Intermediate

Master pockets

Pockets can make or break a garment — and badly sewn pockets are one of the most visible signs of a rushed finish. This masterclass fixes that.

In four focused hours, Kelda takes you through the techniques behind two essential pocket styles — in-seam and welt — along with the understitching, seam matching and fiddly details that separate a good result from a great one.

It's also the perfect companion to the Seams & Collars masterclass running the same weekend — do both and walk away with a seriously upgraded skill set.
