Step 6: tine to close the pocket. I've turned the pocket inside out and pinned the outer edge. So we're looking at the inside of the pocket now, sticking out to the outside of the jeans.

Step 7: sewing this bit can be a bit fiddly, so check if you caught the fabric on both sides. If you missed a bit, just seen an extra pass at that bit. Next, trim the seam allowances to slightly less than 1/2 cm, and trim away fraying and lose threads. Now, if your new pocket has curves, make little snips in those curves, but watch out and don't copy dough your sewing line. Just little snips, 1/2 cm or so apart (maybe a bit more apart on less steep curves). This will help your seam become nice and flat.
