BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates clothing, and more particularly, is directed to a reversible pocket having a patch pocket on one side and a welt pocket on the other side. [0002] U.S. Pat. No. 6,182,296, having a common inventor herewith, describes a reversible denim jacket and pants. The pants have patch pockets on the outside left and right hip fronts and on the outside left and right hip rears. Since the pants are reversible, similar patch pockets are on the inside left and right hip fronts, and the inside left and right hip rears. The jacket has patch pockets on the outside left and right chest fronts, and the inside left and right chest fronts. [0003] One problem with the conventional method of attaching mirror patches to the outside and inside of a garment is that the pocket is not actually reversible, but rather is an outside pocket and an inside pocket. Thus, an item placed into a pocket is difficult to access when the garment is reversed. [0004] Another problem with the conventional method is that the layers of fabric result in bulkiness and stiffness, interfering with the fabric's draping on the body and presenting an unattractive appearance. [0005] Accordingly, there is a need for an improved method of constructing a patch pocket on a reversible garment. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0006] In accordance with an aspect of this invention, there is provided a garment with a reversible pocket, comprising a garment main piece for forming one side of a pocket pouch and having an opening for access to the pocket pouch, and a patch pocket attached to the garment main piece for forming the other side of the pocket pouch and being open at the top of the patch pocket for access to the pocket pouch. [0007] According to a further aspect of the invention, a welt is attached to the bottom of the opening in the garment main piece. [0008] According to a still further aspect of the invention, a protector is attached to the top of the opening in the garment main piece. [0009] In accordance with another aspect of this invention, there is provided a reversible pocket, comprising a pocket pouch formed by a patch pocket having four sides and a portion of a garment main piece opposing the patch pocket, the portion of the garment main piece being fastened to the patch pocket along three sides of the patch pocket and having an opening approximately opposite the fourth side of the patch pocket. Finishing is applied to the opening of the portion of the garment main piece. [0010] It is not intended that the invention be summarized here in its entirety. Rather, further features, aspects and advantages of the invention are set forth in or are apparent from the following description and drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0011] FIGS. 1A-1C are diagrams showing how to make protector 10; [0012] FIGS. 2A-2C are diagrams showing how to make welt 20; [0013] FIGS. 3A-3D are diagrams showing how to make patch pocket 30; [0014] FIGS. 4A-4J are diagrams showing how to attach protector 10, welt 20 and patch pocket 30 to garment main piece 40 to make a reversible welt patch pocket; [0015] FIG. 5 is a side view of the reversible welt patch pocket; and [0016] FIG. 6 is a side view of a conventional patch pocket on a reversible garment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION [0017] In a reversible welt patch pocket according to the present invention, a pocket pouch is formed by a patch pocket and a garment main piece. The top of the patch pocket is unattached to allow access to the contents of the pouch. The garment main piece has a slit attached to a welt for allowing access to the contents of the pouch. Accordingly, the contents of the pocket pouch are accessible regardless of which side of the garment is worn as the outside. [0018] The bulkiness of the reversible welt patch pocket is less than the bulkiness of a conventional mirrored patch pocket. [0019] In some embodiments, the welt may be omitted. [0020] Construction of a reversible welt patch pocket will now be described. Continue reading about Reversible welt patch pocket...
