Oversized Patch Pockets
We played around with the placement of the larger pocket (just on one side). Notice how the larger pocket is pulling the main pant leg? Due to its size, the side seams at the opening needed to be placed further away from the Center Back/Center Front of the body to avoid this. Nonetheless, we still love the drape of the over-sized pocket!

Buttonhole Sewing Tips
2. The buttonhole should be big enough for the button to slide through with a hair bit of resistance as it may stretch out over time.
3. Trim down any excess bulk in your seam allowance, especially if placing a buttonhole along a waistband. The more inconsistent the thickness of fabric under the foot, the more sensitive your sewing machine will be to not sew correctly.
