I use the same pins as Bella and have no problem with them coming out. I have a problem putting them IN!! I find that I have to slightly lift the quilt to be able to stick them through, and then it is not smooth. With the curved pins I can insert them and the quilt stays flat. The reason we pin is so that the quilt has no ripples or puckers. I have had my Pinmoors for several years, but I just don't like them for anything but a very small quilt, placemat size.
