"Okay we're going to sew. We have the hanger in place and we're going to sew over all this hard stuff. You want to go very slowly as you go over any of the thicker parts, and pull out the pins. And just go nice and slow and steady. When you come to a very heavy part, slow down. And just make sure you knot it there. Now I'm going to, the hanger is diagonal in there. I'm just going to sew inside the pocket a bit, so that there'll be a support on the diagonal part of the hanger. Just keep all that material out of the way, and sew down. You can reinforce that a little back and forth for strength. And then I have my front panel that I'm going to sew. And we're just going to top stitch. Now I can feel my hanger is right here, so you want to just make sure you keep the machine out of the way of the hanger. And okay, if the hanger won't go through, you can turn the turn the jeans around. I went halfway, ooh you could go halfway in this direction and halfway in the other direction. You can roll up the material and slide it onto the machine like this. And then just sew all the way around everywhere you've pinned until we have a nice, flat panel to work with."
