Diaper Pins

Learn about diaper pins, including common sizes, locking styles, and uses for cloth diapers, sewing, quilting, laundry bags, fabric storage, and craft projects.

Diaper pins are large safety-style pins traditionally used for fastening cloth diapers and now also used for sewing, laundry, quilting, and craft projects.

Diaper Pins

Diaper pins are large safety-style pins originally designed for fastening cloth diapers. They usually have a sturdy metal shaft and a protective cap or locking head to help keep the pin securely closed.

Although disposable diapers made them less common in everyday use, diaper pins are still used by families who prefer cloth diapers. They are also useful for sewing rooms, laundry bags, quilting, fabric storage, and craft projects that require a larger, stronger pin.

Approximate Length Common Uses
2 1/4 inches Infant cloth diapers, lightweight fabric
2 1/2 inches Standard cloth diapers, sewing uses
2 3/4 inches Heavier fabric, laundry bags, quilting
3 inches Large diapers, heavy fabric, craft applications

Diaper pins are often thicker than ordinary safety pins, so they are better suited for sturdy fabrics than delicate materials. When used with fabric, insert carefully to avoid snagging or stretching the weave.
