These are absolutely my favorite pins that I own. I am so sad that I lost my pin tin with all of my Tula pins :( I am on here to buy more now. I have Clover, Singer, Dritz pins, they all have some defects on some, some burrs , some little problem with SOME of the pins.... The Tula pink pins must have great Quality control bc seriously they have no problems and are a lovely length for pinning many layers. They are durable gauge as well, meaning if I shove a pin hastily into the fabric, it just glides through.... It does not snag, or stutter OR bend on the way into the layers, most of the time I am working with a lot of layers of fleeces, minky, flannel to make plush toys and purses and layering up cloth pads etc.Love these pins so much and am sorta sad I misplaced them in my mad house of a studio, but I am buying more then will have double as many when I find my pin tin once again! Also the design is so unique- like where else are you going to find anything near as cute as unicorn pins- Please Tula Pink- make us purple cat pins too, I will be the first customer!!! Holla Cheshire Cat!!! Yeah Love the wonderland theme yardage line- I have like every print of it and am kind of hoarding it because its so precious!!!
