Pins, pins, pins!

For me, there is not one pin that works for everything. I have about 4 kinds that I use all the time for different things. The newest ones i fell in love with are the double shaft pins that you use for pinning on each side when match seams. Don't know why it took so long for someone to invent those but I'm very glad they did.

I watched Sally Collins video PRECISION PIECING on "The Quilt Show". She recommended Clover Patchwork Pins (Fine). I sent for some and they were great! I also went to her website and ordered her CD Precision Piecing so I could review her suggestions whenever I wanted. I am starting a Jinny Beyer quilt and I intend to pin as I go per Sally's instructions. http://www.sallycollins.org

This thread has convinced me I should give the flower head pins a try. I usually use the dressmaker pins with the different colored heads but I don't have the dexterity in my hands I used to have and sometimes they are hard to get hold of.
