Oh, I see. Hey, if that other pattern seems easier, then it sounds like it's turning out a-ok. If you have pinking shears (the kind with the triangles on the cutting surface) I would recommend trimming the edge before you hem - that way it won't be bunchy as you turn that curve. If you don't have them, you can cut them yourself with your regular scissors. There's probably a description in the pattern's instructions for that? Just throwing that out there, in case it's not.
I was going to suggest you do the hem last, but then I thought you might not like having all of the extra material from the hood on the table as you move it through the machine.
How are you making the Oreo? Two pieces of foam board connected with straps a la sandwich sign board?
