I have some but I would not spend the money again, they are ok but not as great as I thought they would be.

I really like the pinmoores.

I think they are harder to put into the quilt than the bent safety pins, but I love the ease of removing them as I quilt.

And I'm from an even older school. I use regular safety pins (the ones that come with clothes from the dry cleaner) and the spoon-in-the-left-hand method. I hand baste after I pin. Then I machine quilt on my domestic machine. See, I told you it was a very old school.:D

How do these work? I've not seen them, but they look interesting??? Thanks for the info!!

I think that when the glue is mentioned, it should always be stated as SCHOOL GLUE. It makes a difference. Regular glue is too sticky, too thick and doesn't wash out.

I spray baste with the walmart kind, and also use some of the bent pins. Works for me.

I found really cheap earplugs on e-bay and bought a bunch. They work just fine and are much less expensive than the Pinmoors.

I have used the eraser bits and found them to be very good. Hardly ever did one fall off. And the price is right!
