Embroidering pockets can be somewhat tricky. To embroider on pockets you have to make sure the fabric leaves plenty of space for your fingers. Also, make sure the fabric stretches a little bit while you do your embroidery. Today's embroidery tutorial is a basic butterfly embroidered on a pocket of biker shorts. Here is the tutorial.
Materials:
1 color of embroidery thread/floss
Embroidery needle
Scissors
Biker shorts with pockets
Stencil (optional)
Fabric marker (optional)
Sequins
Regular needle
Instructions:
Wash one pair of biker shorts. Let it air dry. Then insert embroidery thread onto the embroidery needle. Use a fabric marker and a stencil to make the shape of the butterfly. After that insert the embroidery needle into the pocket.
Follow the shape of the butterfly while making the loops with the thread. Continue adding the thread until you can see the butterfly in the fabric. Trim the excess thread with scissors. Next, sew sequins inside the butterfly. Then, embroider the antennas of the butterfly.
Trim the leftover threads with scissors. Repeat the same steps for the second pocket of the shorts. Now you can wear your embroidered biker shorts. Make sure you can fit your items inside the pockets. Have fun embroidering on pockets.
