I've tried so many pins on the market, including the way over priced Little House pins in the cute tin. I still keep returning back to Clover Patchwork pins. They slide into fabric silky smooth, so seams stay perfectly matched and don't get distorted by larger pins, causing mismatched seams. I was talked recently into trying Bohin pins . . .awful.
But if you order, don't make the same mistake I did and assume Patchwork Pins and Quilting Pins are the same . . .theyre not. Clover Quilting Pins are like pining with nails.

Do you have one of those old tomato pin cushions? The little strawberry that is attached has stuff in it to keeps your pins sharp. Just poke a dull pin in it 3 or 4 times and its sharp again. It works, but they are hard to find now. I like the silk pins from Joanns. I like the ones that are 1.25" long.
