Hi Reza, I would like to ask about the pocket. If I make such a pocket, do I still need to cut along the dart line on the jacket? This is not entirely clear to me...

Dear fellow tailor,
Mowgli and I must raise £100,000 by 1 October 2025 to start our "Alterations Video Library" project. We need your support today.
This FREE library will have 200+ videos of individual alterations, indexed by seam. Each video shows a fitting problem, followed by the pattern corrections and final results with side-by-side comparisons.
You will learn to fit in minutes, not days. This will be the most important tailoring project of the century. And you can be part of it by funding it today.
If you ever wanted to change the world, now is your chance. Please join us in making a giant leap in the history of tailoring education.
Thank you,
Reza, Founder of International School of Tailoring
Watch this snippet from Lesson 34. The videos in The Alteration Library will be an enhanced version of this presentation style. This library will make fittings as easy as finding directions with GPS.

Hello Akos,
As an idea, for patch pockets I usually make a small pocket on that cut that is going to be hidden when you put the patch pocket on top.
Hello Akos!
Yes, eventually we will cut along the pocket line which connects to the jacket. Please do not make this cut yet if you're following the lessons with me. If it's for your own project, and unrelated to our lessons, then do as you see fit as I can't comment on it.
