Many quilt shops have a store pin, and I always purchase one. I have several from Texas, of course, and one from a shop in Tennessee and North Carolina. I have visited a couple quilt museums, and they, too, have pins. I made myself a "pin blanket" which hangs from a small quilt hanger, and the pins go on it. That way, my collection is in one place, and I can enjoy the memories of each place I visited. I also buy refrigerator magnets.
