Dritz Curved Safety Pins Size 1

Curved Safety Pins are a quilting and sewing notion designed to make pin-basting faster and more comfortable. The curved shape lets the pin pass through multiple layers of fabric and batting without excessive poking or hand strain, making it ideal for basting a quilt sandwich before quilting.

Made from nickel-plated or stainless steel, these pins resist rust and hold their shape through repeated use. They are commonly available in Size 1, Size 2, and Size 3, with smaller sizes suited to lightweight fabrics and larger sizes for thicker quilts and blankets.

Recommended for quilters, garment sewists, and crafters who need to temporarily secure fabric layers before machine or hand stitching. No special tools are required, though a pin-basting spoon or opener tool can make opening and closing the curved pins easier and protect fingers during large basting projects.
