Those are pinmoor.The lady invented these because she had peoblems with her hands.They cost 40dollars for 100.
You can buy less but once you buy them you will never have to buy again because they self seal.She said she would never have me as a client because they last for ever.

Her web sight is www.pinmoor.com she has a video on it to explain how they work.You can do a queen quilt with the 100. Depends how many you use in it.They are made from silicone.I bought them and called her.Men are buying them to use on the end of fish hooks for flyfishing so they dont jab their fingers.Im using them and they work great.

All I know is with arthritic hands, they are easier to grip. I do use mine exclusively, for quilting and all other sewing.

That's how I use them, too. I prefer the flat flower head pins.

Anybody who has these quilters pins and doesn't want them could send them to me. I love these pins and use them for everything. I don't even own any short pins anymore.

I love them and use them all the time. I weave them in the quilt so they hold. Their very sharp, as I get stuck a lot with them. You don't have to use so many pins with them.
