Merchant and Mills Dressmaking Pins are the dependable, high-quality workhorse of the sewing room.
Every sewist needs a reliable supply of pins that they can trust, and these pins deliver on every front, from pattern cutting to final assembly.
Made from nickel-plated steel, they offer excellent rust resistance and a smooth finish that won’t snag your fabric. They are the ideal length and thickness for all-purpose garment construction, from pinning paper patterns to holding sturdy seams in place.
A black box full of best dressmaking pins – 32mm x 0.65mm. Weight 28g or 1oz.
Unlike budget pins that often arrive blunt or bend under the slightest pressure, Merchant and Mills pins maintain their sharp point and structural integrity. They are sharp enough to penetrate multiple layers of cotton, linen, and mid-weight wool with ease.
Presented in the iconic Merchant and Mills sliding box, they are as aesthetically pleasing as they are practical. Using professional-grade pins reduces frustration and ensures your fabric stays exactly where you want it during the entire making process.
These pins aren’t suitable for very fine or lightweight fabrics.
