Clover Patchwork Pins 232 – 0.5mm × 36mm, 100 pcs

Fine steel pins with a small glass head — designed for patchwork and quilting where precision alignment matters. At 0.5mm diameter they're noticeably thinner than standard sewing pins, so they slide through fabric cleanly without distorting the weave or shifting pieces out of alignment. The glass head is heat resistant, so you can press over the pins without melting the head — useful when you want to iron seams without unpinning first. Comes in a closable case.

FAQ

Why glass heads instead of plastic? Glass heads won't melt under an iron, which means you can press seams without removing the pins first — a real time saver when you're working through a lot of patchwork blocks.

What is the difference between Patchwork Pins and Patchwork Pins Fine (SKU 2507)? Both share the same glass head and steel construction. The Fine version is thinner and shorter — better suited for delicate or tightly woven fabrics where even 0.5mm leaves too much of a mark.

Can I use these for appliqué? They'll work, but the Appliqué Pins (SKU 231) are shorter at 20mm and easier to manage on small curved pieces. These 36mm pins are better suited for pinning larger patchwork pieces or quilt layers together.
