SewTites Magnetic Sewing Pins 20 Count No-Pin Fabric Holder
The SewTites Magnetic Fabric Pins — 20 Count are magnetic holding devices that replace traditional pins for holding fabric layers, appliqué pieces, and patterns in place during cutting and sewing. SewTites use rare earth magnets to hold fabric through the surface without piercing it — eliminating the pinholes, snags, and injury risk of traditional straight pins.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do SewTites work?
- Two magnetic pieces — one placed above and one below the fabric — hold the layers together through magnetic attraction without piercing the fabric. The magnetic force is strong enough to hold multiple fabric layers for cutting and positioning.
- Can SewTites replace traditional pins entirely?
- For many applications, yes. SewTites excel at holding fabric layers for cutting, holding patterns in place during cutting, holding binding in position before machine sewing, and any task where temporary hold without penetration is preferred.
- Are SewTites safe to use near a sewing machine?
- Yes for standard sewing machines — do not place directly under the needle or near sensitive machine electronics. Remove SewTites before stitching directly over the held area.
- Is 20 the right quantity?
- 20 provides adequate supply for most individual quilting tasks. Production studios may want additional sets for simultaneous use across multiple projects.
- Are SewTites reusable?
- Yes — indefinitely reusable. The rare earth magnets maintain their magnetic force without degradation under normal studio use.
