iPhone Window Pocket (or is it a Shorts-shaped Case)

Step 4 Put it all Together and you're done!

Now, if you reaching the end of your patience, perhaps now is a good time to take a break.  The next stage is a pain and any mistakes are going to be visible.  Go for a run, take a nap, go to work, or whatever you do to relax....

Welcome back.  Feeling better?

The concept is pretty straightforward but the space is limited.  Think of the rectangular window as a U-shape with a lid on it.  The U-shape needs to be sewn through all 4 layers: Outer fabric, PVC window, outer pocket (with hole), and inner pocket.  The Lid, however, only needs to go through 3 layers: Outer fabric, PVC window, and Outer Pocket.  If you sew through all 4 layers for the lid, you won't be able to get your iPhone in or out!

OK, Sub-steps:

1) Cut the PVC to a size that is quite a  bit bigger than it needs to be and lay out the layers (Pic 1)
 
2) Pin all the layers in place (Pic 2)

3) Sew the U through all of the layers (Pic 3)

4) Pin the Lid section together (Pic 4)

5) Sew on the lid, and you're done! (Pic 5)

Now, the worst part of the sewing was the lid section.  This was hard because the underside of the seam is inside the original pocket.

Next time (haha) I do it, I think I would try to sew the lid section first (Sub-steps 4-5) then sew the U last (Sub-step 3).

Good luck.
