Some quick notes on the Welt:
You mark the pocket line on the right side of the garment. Note that in some way this is what a welt is? It is a hidden pocket demarcated by an almost invisible pocket line. So called 'pocket lips' lie so close together so that the welt pocket line is 'gone'. This could be called a tailoring style.
2) Then cut some interfacing to cover this pocket area. The interfacing should be approx. 2cm longer than the pocket but just 2-3cm side. Then Center the interfacing on the wrong side over the pocket line. *The nature of fusing interfacing to a pocket area is important. You can ask should it be sewn / should it be fused. Indeed what is the correct interfacing to use? These questions however won't be immediately answered in this blog but I would certainly like to answer them eventually.
3) The fabric for the pocket should also be interfaced. Interfacing should not cover the whole rectangle. This fabric which is the Welt fabric will be interfaced. What then are the measurements for this Welt?
