Rusty Risk?

Howdie..

I've never blocked anything before and from what I've read, the pins rusting can be an issue.. How much of an issue is this? Would pins rust from just misting the fabric? Should I go and buy special pins that claim they won't rust? What about the plastic ones? I'm nearly to the blocking step so I thought I'd ask before it was too late.

I bought my pins at the dollar store and some at the craft store labelled - knit pins or something like that.

I've used safty pins when I don't have enough, and they have been fine.

I pin my pieces out on a pink floor insulation board, spray it with water, and when they are dry, I take the pins out.

good luck.
