Thumbs up for silk pins..
|
The negative to silk pins - if one drops them, they are harder to locate and pick up.
I like the fineness of them - I do think they slide through the fabric better. Do any of them come with plastic heads? There are differences in straight pins in length, fineness (diameter), and in the point (ball-point or regular) |
I love using silk pins. They just glide into the fabric without distorting and with very little effort. They also don't leave noticable holes in your fabric. They cost more, but they're worth it to me.

There are differences in straight pins in length, fineness (diameter), and in the point (ball-point or regular) Make sure it's Clover. I bought another brand that looks just like this and didn't like it. The only downside to those pins is that they bend easily...or maybe I'm just prone to bending pins.
