Frugality: Jacket Adjusted

I didn’t take pictures of hand sewing these patches and pockets into the jacket, because hand sewing is dull. Also I need both hands to do it and I could not persuade the cat to manage the cell phone camera. Also, I was careful to make the stitches invisible on both the inside and the outside. So there’s not much to photograph.

However, here is the finished pocket on the inside of the jacket. It is a lined pocket, very nice. The only thing I think I should add is a large snap fastener. This is because if the phone slips out of the pocket it’ll shatter. Snap fasteners are always sold in huge quantity, ten or twenty at a time, and I have dozens — all of them tiny. I have to find someone who is afflicted with a number of extra large snap fasteners, and have her give me two. But then it really will be done!
