Safety Pins

Safety Pins for Basting, Buttons, Quilting and More.

If you need pins that won't come undone when fabric layers shift, Safety Pins are the way to go. Perfect for basting quilts, temporarily securing items in the laundry, and many other helpful applications, Safety Pins are sharp and secure. Safety Pins are available in a variety of sizes and styles, including heavy-duty, button, and curved quilters' safety pins. Curved safety pins are ideal for basting quilt layers; their curved design prevents multiple layers of fabric from shifting too much. Use button safety pins to temporarily secure items like buttons when laundering an item, or try heavy-duty safety pins for basting heavier materials. Not only are safety pins very secure, but they can also protect your fingers while sewing! Choose from brass or steel pins, available with the pins open or closed upon arrival.
