I will supply the nightshirts and material, you will provide the light grey thread. Similar to the existing top pocket, I do not want the pocket to bunch up or droop. See image as a guidance. John.
May did a somewhat unusual sewing task for me involving multiple garments. She understood what was required and made sure it worked by offering a better solution than the one I proposed.
