Okay. Thank you. I will get some.

You may also find that besides using these in a stack and whack/OBW quilts, they are nice for piecing too. They are finer and lay nice and flat when laying on your sewing machine bed too :D:D:D

In stead of the flat head pins, we basted our strips prior to cutting the 6 layers of fabric to make individual pinwheels. Quilt is at quilters now but will post picture when it is finished.
