I found these at the estate house, they are as big as Hat pins. Do you think they are for sewing? I took two pictures.

The quilt that you bought at the thrift store is absolutely gorgeous!

I don't sew, but I have seen lots of hat pins similar to the picture on your blog. Nice picture.

Hat pins tend to be about 4 inches and longer. These look like corsage pins from back in the day when women wore corsages often.

Yes, corsage pins, I bet that is what they are. She must have known someone in the florist business. Thank you Kathy for thinking of that.

I have been looking for those pins. Would you be willing to sell some?
