I'm Sari.

And I'm Haley.

And this is Seamwork Radio.

Welcome back to Seamwork Radio, where we share practical ideas for building a creative process so you can sew with intention and joy.

Today, we're talking about one of those details that can really make or

break the look of your finished garment, getting perfect, crisp corners. We'll cover the

techniques that make all the difference when you're sewing collars, cuffs, pockets, and any other

detail where you need a sharp, clean point. All right. Our icebreaker for today, Haley,

tell me about a time when you were really proud of how a detail turned out in your sewing.

What was it about that moment that made you feel like you really nailed it?

Well, I'm going to stay on theme with corners and say that I sewed a jacket with welp pockets a couple years ago, and they turned out so crispy, so perfect.

And I think that when you're sewing something like a welt pocket, what I love about sewing well pockets

that maybe I think this is a controversial thing to love is that you have no choice but to

slow down when you're sewing them. You can't, like, you cannot rush it, which for my, like, go-go-go-go-

go-brain is a really helpful little speed bump in the project. And slowing down and taking each

step one at a time and considering the small tweaks you can make to your approach

to each one of those steps to yield better results, it's like it's the secret sauce.

And then when you spend like the time when you get it just right, it just makes the victory so much sweeter.

I made the jacket for my husband and I don't think he realizes just like how dope those pockets are.

Are they single-walt pockets?

Single-wilt, yeah.

I have a jacket that I made from a vintage pattern that has single walt pockets, a beautiful wool coat, and I love it.
