The shank is a great button. It relieves stress from the garment and makes buttoning easier. I would place a small piece of fabric on the inside of the garment in the area that the button will be sewn. The weight of the garment and the button will determine the weight of the thread used. Take a stitch or two through the stablizing fabric on the inside of the garment, then bring the needle through to the surface of your main garment. I like to take one stitch there before I put the needle through the shank. Take three or four stitches or what you feel stablizes the shank and then put your needle through the main garment taking your final stitches on the inside of the garment in the piece of stablizer. This will give you excellent hold without so much stress on the front side of your blouse etc. Don't take more stitches than you need through the shank as it tends to look bulky. Good luck.

How do you sew with hammer beads?
do you mean Hama Beads? It would depend on if you were attempting to sew them as single beads or as fused multibead creations. The short answer is-- anything that has a hole in it can be sewn to fabric. as long as it's weight can be supported by the material you are using to 'sew' it with and the fabric you are sewing it to... you could sew up through fabric string the bead on your sewing material (thread or what have you), and then sew down through the fabric. You may need to make several stitches through heavier beads to secure them. You can also sew up through the hole in whatever item you are using and sew through a smaller bead and then back down through the larger hole (similarly to sewing on a sequin). If you are attempting to sew fused items, sew through multiple holes in the item to secure it flat to the fabric. It is often easiest to sew beads to fabric if it is under tension-- using either a hoop or a scroll frame is really handy, or you can staple it to a frame (which will support a lot more weight if you are doing a very heavy beading project).
