Dritz126 Dressmaker Pins, 1-1/16-Inch (750-Count)

I purchased these for more purposes than one. I use them to pin up scarves and they are PERFECT for what I need them for. They are great sized, great quality, and don’t feel cheap. They could be used for so many purposes and I’m glad I was able to find such a great deal on them.I also find it extremely useful that they come in a large quantity!I’m definitely satisfied with my purchase and would recommend them to anyone!

These pins are better than the singer pins I bought before. They are more sturdy and the head slightly wider for craft use. I"ll be getting these in future.

I have bought a lot of pins over the years and these are the best I have found.

- They were exactly as described, therefore exactly what I needed. And they are Dritz - I've never had a single Dritz pin or needle that was not perfectly smooth and very sharp. No burrs. I don't have any idea how billions of small pins get Quality Control done on them, but however it's done, Dritz does it superbly - I've had other types of pins actually be unusable because of burrs and whatnot, so this is one of the *very* rare cases where I do stick with one brand. - I use pins for all sorts of things, including using them as small nails, and they remain strong and shiny, no corrosion. I'll be using these as "nails" for small wood items. And this was a LOT of pins for the price, so I won't run out any time soon ;) - For fabrics, I "stick" (ha ha!) with the white-glass-head ones that are really long and super-fine, but these shorter ones have all sorts of uses, so I couldn't pass up a box of 750, LOL!

These pins are sharp. They are a bit thicker then some of my other pins, but I suspect it will mean they get less bent out of shape the the thinner ones. Since they are sharp I’m not worried about holes. The thickness is on par with some brass lace pins I have. Still thinner then a safety pin.

I can't believe I am writing a review about pins, but any serious sewer knows that the pins at Joann's are terrible and that finding good quality ones is harder than it looks. I have a huge box from Steinlauf and Stoller of NYC that are a bit too long. I like the 1 1/16" length the best for cutting patterns and draping. The length is manageable and the pins are definitely sharp. They have bent on thick dense fabric, but the easy glide into most fabrics makes it worth it. Don't keep putting up with bad pins. Get these and the Clover glass topped silk pins and you are set.

I use these to create opulent Christmas ornaments by pinning fabric over styrofoam balls, then adding various beads and crystals in pleasing arrays. These hold the beds and crystals beautifully without detracting from the designs.

Nice sturdy pins. So far I've found a few bent ones. I wouldn't use them on anything fine or silky, they aren't real sharp.

Some bent but did the job

Nice sharp bought pins will be put to good use
