I have a hole in the back pocket of my jeans. I have fabric I'd like to patch it with, but how would I go about sewing that? Do I have to completely remove the pocket and THEN sew it? Or should I just try handsewing it?

My mom used to take cowboy type handkerchief colored patches and sew them over the holes in jeans and cords. The girls loved the look.

my husband has many jeans that the back left pockets have holes worn into them from his chewing tabbacco roll, i have to take the pocket off and use pieces from an old pair of jeans. that has been the only way i have been able to repair the pocket and it stay repaired.
