Clover Boxed Flower Head Pin 54mm

These are high quality pins that are all consistently sharp and well made. The long length and plastic flower on the end make them particularly useful in quilting. Several years ago, a friend gave me an extra set she had. I've enjoyed using them. Over the years the points on a few have become a bit dull, but this happened with only a very few. I have used them in all my sewing. While the pins are a bit pricey, they are comparable to other similar products, and you get what you pay for with Clover products.

I wanted pins for piecing and these are not it. Very thick pins for sandwiching quilts but I had to return.

I needed pins that were thin yet long enough to hold in place the ears/limbs/tail of my amigurumi animals to determine their proper placement and to keep in place while attaching them. These fit the bill and have worked great. I would easily recommend these pins for this purpose.

Working on a paper pieced quilt and really needed flat pins. I had Two pins of another brand, but I needed four. Yes, I bought these just for four pins. Oh my! When these came in, I through the others away. The others looked smooth until I had these for a comparison.These are fairly thick. By my measurements, 28 thousandths versus 20 thousandths for the extra fine pins. What this means is that they do not bend as easily as some of the finer pins. On the flip side, they are thick enough that I would not stitch over them.The flat heads are critical for foundation paper piecing. The heads are easy to grasp. The heads are plastic, so I would not iron over them.These are now on my list of critical sewing items. I will never again start a foundation paper piecing project without them.

You know how the quality of some brands just aren't like what they used to be and yet the cost has increased? Well these Clover brand pins are very nicely made and I can see why they cost what they cost. I thought they were a bit expensive for pins but I was looking at other well known brands I've used before but people complained that the quality is lacking in terms of the tips snagging the fabric. You don't want a pin that will snag your fabric otherwise you end up ruining something that costs more than your pin to begin with. I'm definitely happy to have made the decision to splurge on such a small item. The pin shafts are smooth, the plastic tab is big enough for you to easily grab. Also I like that the tab colors are visible shades for those pesky moments where I accidentally drop a pin to the floor. I hate using the ones with the pearl drop ends because even with the colored ends, I still have a hard time finding them if they're dropped on carpeting because it's like looking for a tiny dot. Last thing you want is to find it with your bare foot. The packaging does warn you that the tabs are not iron-safe. They come in a compact clear plastic storage container. Get them, they're a good investment for people who sew or do repairs on clothing.

I like that these are longer and easy to hold. I do find that the pins are a bit thick and it makes it hard to pin fabric. I use them mostly for pinning for foundation paper piecing as the flat heads don’t interfere with trimming with a ruler.

Flat pins. Good price and came on time.

Like. Got what I wanted

These pins are great for pinning patterns as they are longer and the end lays completely flat. Both of these things mean the fabric doesn't bunch up as much. I try not to run them over with my sewing machine, but so far I haven't bent any and in the same time period I would have bent at least 5 of the old short ones with large heads. (maybe it's because these are easier to see and remove, maybe it's the length of pin allowing me to put them further from the edge.)The case they come in isn't quite ideal as it does sometimes fall open, but it's better than most of the cases I've seen outside Altoids tins. (and it's clear unlike the tins.)The heads are plastic though, so be careful not to iron over them.

Ideal for using with a sewing machine. The flat head makes it so much easier.

Son un poco caros pero tienen muy buena calidad

Es práctico, no estorba al coser.

Wir benutzen diese Nadeln schon lange. Sie sind gut zu benutzen gerade für die Nähmaschine. Dünn und doch stark durch den Stecknadelkopf( Blümchen) gut anzufassen und man kann über die Nadeln mit der Maschne eine Naht nähen. 100 Stück in 4 Farben. Natürlich nicht mit dem Bügeleisen über die Blumenköpfen drüber. Wir sind begeitert.Klare Kaufempfehlung.
