Thirdly, with an allowance of 1 cm, stitch two parts on three sides, folding them with their front sides to each other. Turn the rectangle through the unstitched area, straighten its corners with a ruler, a sushi stick or a needle, picking up small bends. Then sew the open side with a blind stitch.
Fourth, iron the part and fold it in width so that the front of the pockets is 10 cm and the back is 14 cm. Sew the product on the sides, sew stitches, creating pockets.
