Peek-a-boo Mat: Adding Pockets

Video Transcript

"Now we'll pin on some interesting pockets. I found this one has a little Velcro closure, so that's good for little hands. And another fun zipper on the side, and you can hide a lot of cute little things in there. So we'll put that on and pin it down. I've pinned on my bear, and his tent, I also found this piece that has some more interesting pockets and little things that are nice. You want to cut away anything heavy because it's difficult to top stitch if the fabric is too heavy. So anything that has like the big fat seams and such, you want to just trim away. And that can be just top stitched down, and we'll be pinning that. Another thing I've got is a nice fat button, and if I place that here, and I have a piece of scrap vinyl, and I cut a nice big buttonhole, something that the child will easily be able to button, and we'll put that right through the belt loop, and it will look just like a belt. So we'll pin this all in place, and then I'll show you some more things."
