Fork Pins - For Perfect Pattern Matching

You've spent time aligning your patterns, everything is perfectly positioned... and when it comes time to sew, the fabrics slip and your pattern matches shift? With fork pins, no more unpleasant surprises when turning your work!

Designed to hold two layers of fabric without moving, these double-pointed pins are your allies for successful pattern matching, patchwork assembly, and all seams that require precision.

Their secret? Two parallel points that hold the fabrics on either side of the seam line. Unlike a regular pin, which sometimes allows the fabrics to pivot or slide over each other, the fork pin stabilizes both layers at the same time. Result: your lines stay aligned, your patterns meet, and you avoid long sessions of ripping out and restarting!

Their fork shape also makes them easy to grip and remove during sewing, allowing you to work comfortably without wasting time.

Perfect for:

  • Successfully matching your patterns : checks, stripes, and prints stay perfectly aligned during assembly

  • Avoiding misalignment between two fabrics: the two points hold the layers in place and limit slipping

  • Preventing fabrics from pivoting: the double hold stabilizes the pieces when handling your work.

  • Limiting seams that need to be redone: fewer shifted matches also mean less time spent ripping out and restarting!

Our tip:

To achieve a perfect match, start by carefully aligning the patterns of your two pieces of fabric, right sides together.

Then, pierce the two points of the fork pin on either side of the matching line. This technique allows you to simultaneously hold the horizontal and vertical lines and prevent the fabrics from pivoting relative to each other.
