SEW EASY: HOW TO MAKE POCKETS

DESCRIPTION
SEW E.ASY: HOW TO MAKE POCKETS is one of a series of twentyfive films presenting Lucille Rea, sewing specialist, in a demonstration which takes place in a planned sewing center. In this film. Miss Rea shows how plain patch pockets are made. Two pockets are made in this demonstration — one with a rounded bottom and a hemmed top, the other with square bottom corners and a flap top.
Miss Rea begins by using models to point out the details which make the difference between a good pocket and a poor one. The hemmed top pocket is made first. .After the paper pattern is removed from the fabric, the hem is made so that all of the raw edges are concealed. Miss Rea says that this feature adds to the neatness of the finished pocket and that it will prevent raveling when the garment is laundered. The row of stitching that is used for making the side seams of the hem is continued around the pocket and forms a guide for the seam allowance. An enlarged model in contrasting shades is used to let the viewer see the line which the final row of stitching will follow.
As the demonstration continues, the demonstrator makes several slits in the edge of the pocket at the bottom corners and explains that this will prevent puckering when it is stitched to the dress. The seam allowance is turned under and pressed; the pocket is pinned in place, basted, and stitched. It is now pointed out that back stitching and an extra row of stitches run diagonally across each end of the hem will give added reinforcement to the pocket when the dress is worn.
In the next sequence the flap top pocket is made. An enlarged diagram shows that the flap is merely an elongated hem and that it is made as such. The seam allowance is now turned under. The bottom corners are folded; the pocket is pressed, pinned in place, basted, and stitched.
The conclusion mentions that subsequent units of the dressmaking demonstrations will be taken up in other films in the series.
APPRAISAL
HOW TO MAKE POCKETS is
typical of the other twenty-four films in the SEW EASY series. In this film Lucille Rea, clothing specialist, plays the role of teacher-narrator in the stepby-step demonstration. Close-ups. enlarged models, diagrams in contrasting shades, and the skillful use of camera angles enable the viewer to see and follow each part of the demonstration clearly. The steps are carefully explained, and whenever necessary the pieces of cut fabric are identified with gummed tape markers. The language used is simple, and the equipment is similar to that which is likely to be found in most sewing centers or homes. This series of films should be of interest to sewing teachers and classes as well as to persons who sew at home. They are simple enough for use with beginners, and yet contain enough short-cuts and other valuable information to make them helpful to advanced groups.
