it's just pinning a quilt with straight pins, instead of safety pins

stopper idea is neat, but I think that they would get lost very quickly

I think they're neat for like $3 or $4 a pack. Not $20, though. I agree they look just like earplugs.

I like the concept instead of taking the time to do and undo the safety pins! Pricey, and not sure how well they will stay in while maneuvering the quilt around to quilt it.

Boy that sure would stop me from poking my fingers! I like the idea but the cost....way too high!

Forgot to mention, remind me of the earplugs hubby wears at work....hmmmmm.

I think I stick with safety pins. (no pun intended).

Especially in times of spending wisely, I'd pass on this. Nothing wrong with safety pins. They look too bulky to try and maneuver around while sewing. IMHO.

I think the concept is smart, I would try them, but not at that price. $20 is too high, but I would pay $10.

Neat concept, but not too practical in my way of thinking. It looked clumsy watching her quilt and stopping to remove them... I would have to think about it, and maybe try it with a few ear plugs first.
