    I got my package of Pinmoors today.
    LOVE THEM!!
    I just might never use safety pins again.
    Too bad they are a little expensive.
    I think I'll supplement them with ear plugs or cut up a white eraser like someone mentioned.
    But whoever posted about these originally, Thanks!

    I just spoke to my DDs about what I want for my birthday and Xmas. Guess what I asked for? :D
    1. framed photos of them and the kids
    2. gift cards (as usual)
    3. autobiographies (as usual)
    4. Pinmoors (new!)
    Although not necessarily in that order. :D :D

    I can't get over what a simple concept these are, and I'm kicking myself for why didn't I think of them?
    I hope the lady who invented them is very successful with them.
    I think I'm so excited because I can use these even with my achy, not quite numb fingers.

    I brought some earplugs home from work to try. Pinned my layers last night. Going to do some quilting on it tonight and see how they work. They did seem to stay on pretty well. If they aren't staying on, I will try Pinmoors. Love the idea!

    I'm going to buy some foam earplugs too and try them also.
    I kind of think they won't stay on as well, but we'll see.

    Wow, what a great idea. I really dislike using safety pins so I am really liking this.

    Just checked out the website and they are a little pricey. :shock: I'll have to think about it.

    I have them, I ordered them as soon as they were available to buy. While waiting for them, I used everything a pin would stick into but after using the Pinmoors I tossed the other things. It is one of the few quilting tools I have not bought on sale. :lol: I now have enough to pin baste a king size quilt. I had to quit taking them to quilt workshops, everyone wanted to borrow just a few and I never got them back. :?
