“Curated under the watchful wings of SewEndipitous dragonflies, and ready to find its home with you.”Manufacturer: Clover Needlecraft Stock #: 2501CVProduct Content: Steel Type: .50 mm diameter Designer: Clover Needlecraft Group Name: Best Selling Pins, Needles Theme: N/A Item Description: Pin delicate fabrics with confidence using Clover Silk Glasshead Pins, Size 30. These fine straight pins are designed for lightweight fabrics, making them especially useful when you need a thinner pin that helps reduce visible pin marks. Each pin has a steel needle and a glass head, so the head will not melt if touched with the heat of an iron. The slim 0.5mm diameter makes these pins a helpful choice for silk, fine cottons, lightweight wovens, garment sewing, quilting details, appliqué prep, and other projects where bulky pins can distort the fabric. Packaged in a reusable case, this set includes 100 pins for your sewing room, travel kit, class bag, or project station.
Good pins make sewing feel calmer. These Clover silk pins are especially helpful when you are working with lighter fabrics or small pieces where a thicker pin can leave marks, shift the fabric, or feel clumsy.
We like glasshead pins because they are easier to see, easier to grip, and more forgiving near the iron than plastic-head pins. They are a smart little upgrade for garment sewing, delicate piecing, appliqué work, and careful fabric placement.
