Secure glass case to pocket in a work shirt.  How often does a glass case fall out of your shirt pocket?  Try this easy method of securing glass case and glasses to the pocket.  Attach a piece of velco (hard) side to the pocket as close to the centre as possible

Secure glass case to pocket

Tip - Most soft glass cases come with Velcro stuck to case.  Usually the soft section is on the flap and the hard on the case.  If the flap is soft, then use hard on the pocket and viz versa.

Stitch a piece of soft velcro underneath the hard on the top of the pocket.  This velcro will attach to the soft on the body of the case - see 2. Attach velcro to back of fiirst piece

In the example I had the Velcro about .5 cm (1/4 in) above the edge of the pocket.  This was because of the position of the velcro on the glass case.  Lower the glass case flap and this will secure glass case to pocket.

This method stops the glass case from falling out of the pocket and gives easy access to glasses by lifting flap, and accessing glasses whilst the case is still secured to the pocket.

Happy sewing
