The instructions say to sew it But what can I use instead of pins to keep it in position while I sew? |

you can get clips runnyeyes - like this amazon.co.uk they're like mini bulldog clips, and very useful if you've got thick layers of fabric |

Do you have any small bulldog clips? That might work.

Paper clips work fine - I’ve also used clothes pegs before now

Fabulous ideas. Thank you so much. I’ve ordered some Wonderclips ( not on a slow boat from China) but I’m tempted to try paperclips or pegs as well.
