I keep mysafety pins in contains that my DH got at Harbor Freight that are used for nuts and bolts and washers. They stack onto one another. I keep them under my sewing machine
And one I place my binding clips. I leave both pins and clips open. Since I have MS it is easier not to open and close them . When I use them I just shake them onto my quilt and start pinning. As my little brother says "different strokes for different folks." We each find our nitch. Happy quilting!
