Better than I had imagined
A pin is a pin right? Or so I thought. In 35 years of quilting I can safely say I’ve met a few. A commission for a hundred meters of bunting this summer found me wanting and so of course I went to Hobbycraft. I knew I would get the widest choice in store as well as expert help and advice. The assistant recommended these having listened carefully to my expectation and past disasters with other pins. It didn’t matter to her that I wasn’t buying an expensive machine and she guided and made the entire experience a pleasure. The product is EXACTLY fit for purpose. Long, very strong and with bright big heads that don’t get lost in my work or sink beyond reach in my pin cushion. I’m so pleased with this tiny object that has really enhanced my sewing. Pin money well spent. Good job Hobbycraft.

Very good quality pins
I do a lot of patchworking and in the past have gone through a lot of pins because they bend easily or the flower heads detach. These ones do neither. Quality pins at a competitive price. Thank you hobby craft.

Nice and long
I use these for a variety of tasks and find them excellent for cleaning the tips of outliner tubes that have dried up. Like the fact they have big heads as they are easier to see and pick up if dropped.

Very good product
These pins have large heads which make them easy to pick up & are large enough to see when you are sewing. I am unable to use pins with small pinheads so these are ideal.

Easy to use
These are great for pressing etc, they are easy to pick up and because they are longer than ordinary pins the fabric doesn't have to be moved so much when they are put in

Does what you'd expect.
I use these pins for blocking out knitting and crotchet. They are long and flat and sit nicely, as you'd expect from pins. The only gripe I have with them is if you don't pull them out just right and straight, it doesn't take much for the flower head to snap off. It's only a tiny piece of plastic holding them on and once they've snapped it's pretty useless. Not a common enough occurrence however to cause a major pain.

What’s happened to pins?
Over the last year I must have bought 5 plus different packs of pins, all of which have been a disappointment. Whilst these have been the best of the bunch, Half the pack we’re still a little rough which when you’re using delicate fabric is far from ideal. How hard can it be to make a smooth pin which doesn’t pull or snag the fabric it’s designed for?
