Safety Pins

Shop Quality Safety Pins At Spotlight

You can sew with confidence using any of the quality safety pins from the range at Spotlight! Our classic, nappy and quilting safety pins are perfect for quickly pinning sewing materials together without the worry of sharp edges sticking out, and are easy to use even for beginner sewists.

At Spotlight, you can find a great range of quality safety pins to choose from, in handy value packs that ensure you'll have plenty of safety pins to work with.

Choose Strong and Durable Steel Safety Pins

Safety pins are designed to keep your materials in place when sewing or making amendments. For this reason, it's important that steel safety pins themselves are durable and strong to securely hold your materials. They are designed with a locking mechanism to prevent the pin from poking you while working. It's also important that this locking mechanism is also strong and durable as a weakened lock system can cause the pin to sleep out, pricking you in the process.

Explore Our Range of Safety Pins for Clothes for Your Next Project

When bringing your clothing projects to life, you would require multiple safety pins. They can be used to pin pieces of fabric together while you sew or hold the fabric in place while you hem, making them a valuable addition to a range of clothing projects. At Spotlight, you can find a range of multi-pack safety pins for whatever project that comes your way. You can also shop from a variety of sizes. When handling more delicate fabrics, it's best to go for smaller safety pins to prevent from damaging your materials.

Find Large Safety Pins to Suit Your Needs

Whether you're tackling a coat project to help keep you warm for winter, or you're putting together a cosy blanket for a loved one, our large safety pins will be your best friend. These big safety pins are designed to securely hold thicker and heavier materials, limiting the snapping out of place that may occur with smaller safety pins.

Select From a Range of Safety Pins Types

You can find three different kinds of safety pins at Spotlight, including:

• Stainless steel safety pins: The quintessential safety pins are your classic stainless steel safety pins that come in bulk packs. Whether you've had a minor wardrobe malfunction or need a little staying power in your current sewing project, safety pins are a must-have for all sewists! Beginner sewists should always start their collection with a pack of bulk safety pins.
• Nappy pins: These cute pins are designed for use on baby's nappies and clothes. Not only do they come in super cute colours, but they lock shut so there's no fear of them accidentally opening.
• Blanket pins: These extra-large blanket pins are ideal for pinning thick materials together and are commonly used for pinning a blanket together so you can wear it like a shawl. Blanket pins, sometimes called wool blanket pins, are great to take when camping or for using when making a garment that uses very thick materials.

You can find safety pins in silver, gold and black colours, and there are even rainbow packs available if you want a little more fun in your sewing projects! Look to renowned brands like Semco and Birch for quality safety pins you can rely on.

Safety Pin FAQs

What can I use safety pins for?

Safety pins are commonly used in dressmaking to quickly piece materials together but can also be used to temporarily hold a garment together on the fly when you're out and about. Larger safety pins are often used to turn a blanket into a cape if you want to wear one around in cold weather.
