    Yesterday at my community quilts meeting a lady had one of these. I need one!! I'm so tired of poking my fingers and breaking my nails when I pin. I'm going to look for one today.

    Do you have one? What do you use to close pins?

    Yes, I have one and I like it. I got it in a secret pal trade.

    I've seen them, but for me it would just be something else to put down and then not be able to find it. Like my pins are always on the other side of my large table when I need more.

    I use a small teaspoon that I slip under the pin when closing it, keeps me from putting a ridge in my fingernail. I keep the spoon and a tweezer in the box I keep my pins it so it's always handy when I need it. I use the tweezer to pull out loose threads poking out of seams. May in Jersey

    I LOVE it! it has grooves the hold the pin, makes fast work of basting, you hold it in your nondominate hand which seems odd at first
