Are you supposed to sew over pins?
Answer: Yes, all sewing machines can sew over pins, most of the time. The REAL Answer: NO, you should NOT sew over pins. The pin was perfectly placed in the fabric and centered perfectly between the needle holes of the selected stitch length. Needle glides effortlessly over the pin without contact.

What happens when you pin a cloth in Blender?
Cloth pinning in Blender does not “attach” the object to anything, ever. What it does is modify how the mesh behaves according to the Cloth physics sim.
What happens when you pin a mesh to a cloth?
What it does is modify how the mesh behaves according to the Cloth physics sim. So, if in the pinning group a vertex is weight 1.0 (fully pinned), it won’t act like cloth but instead will act like any other mesh – in the absence of any other influences, that part of the mesh will just stay wherever it happens to be.
