A moor or anchor (10) for pins (12), needles, or other sewing implements, comprising a moor or anchor having a first end and a second end, the first (14) and the second end (16) are connected by a central portion (30) which may be curved (18), whereby the moor or anchor (10) can be positioned on a surface (20) and receive a pin (12), needle, or other sewing implement to anchor a piece of fabric (19) to the surface. The surface (20) may be fabric, cloth, vinyl, plastic, or any other flexible material. The moor or anchor (10) may be configured in various shapes and include curved portions (18) and planar surfaces (26), and color-coded to facilitate use. A plurality of the moors or anchors are used to form a support and positioning network (50). A method for using the moor to secure and position pins and other sewing implements to surfaces such as fabric or other flexible material is also disclosed, allowing the formation of a surface support and positioning network (48). |

1. A device for holding two or more pieces of fabric together in a desired position for sewing or quilting procedures, comprising:
a pin moor having a first end and a second end, and a connecting central portion; said first end and said second end are substantially circular and have a flat surface thereto; said pin moor being composed of a durable resilient material, whereby said pin moor can be positioned on a fabric surface and receive a pin on any surface thereof, to anchor a piece of fabric to said surface of the pin anchor, or to any edge thereof, by partially piercing the anchor with said pin, so that a surface network of fabric positioning structures is formed by a plurality of said pin moors forming a surface structure array of support and positioning structures. |
