Such a pocket is suitable for a bag, backpack, trousers, shorts or skirts in the style of casual, loose jeans and so on.
In addition to the original appearance, this pocket is good in that nothing accidentally falls out of it. It will look good on denim products and other not too thin fabrics. The pocket is pretty simple: follow the steps in the workshop.

Step 3
We outline the pocket entry line: you need to bend the corner inward so that its diagonal is slightly smaller than the diagonal of the valve. In this example, the length of each leg of the bent corner is 12.5 cm. We iron the corner.
Step 4
Stitch valve and pocket parts.
Step 5
Having folded the valve into a pocket, we combine the details so that we get an even rectangle. Pins off.
Step 6
Fasten the flap to the pocket with short stitches.
