Keep You on the Straight and Narrow
Sewing pins are an important part of your sewing supplies. They help you keep your pieces organized, and they help you sew neat seams. But all pins for sewing are not the same.
Different pin designs provide you with novelty and fun, while others serve a specific function.

There are a number of things to consider when you are ordering some new sewing pins. Colorful pins are fun to work with, and they are easy to see when you are sewing or if you happen to drop them (I know this never happens to you!).
Sewing Pins with ball heads are easy to pick up.
Round heads are easy to pick up, especially if you have impaired fine motor coordination or if you have arthritis in your fingers and hands. On the other hand, flat head pins or sewing pins with glass heads, are more likely to survive, if you iron over them.
Long stem sewing pins can hold multiple layers of fabric together easily. Thin stem sewing pins are great for delicate fabrics and don’t leave holes in your fabric, but some of them are too delicate and can break.
Quilters’ pins should be long, for basting through several layers of thick fabric. And they should also be colorful, so you remember where they all are placed.
Extra fine sewing pins are used for delicate fabrics and for applique work.
One of the most popular new items is Clover Wonder Clips
Wonder Clips look like little clothespins and have a flat bottom so that they lay flat to the sewing table. These little clips also work well with delicate fabrics that might get holes from pins. Wonder Clips come in two sizes, regular and large.
