I asked in Target store baby section yesterday if they had diaper pins and had to explain to the clerk what they were 
No they don't.
I'll try joanns. The leg zipper on Rob's heavy duty coveralls is broke and I could only find one pin here strong enough to go through the material but I don't think it will last out the coverall life... So I'll keep looking for diaper pins!

My "babies" are 39 and 35. I used the duck head pins. My daughter (35 yrs old) uses cloth diapers on my granddaughter. Big difference from what I used with them. https://texastushies.com/ This is where she gets them from.

I really remember the 2 different types of cloth diapers that I used. My favorite were the long gauze ones that had to be folded to use. They were of thin material and dried quickly on the clothesline. The 3-ply diapers didn’t need folding but took longer to dry. Those were the days. 😊
