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 by a surface network of fabric positioning structures and color-coded indicators formed by a plurality of said devices so that a surface structure array of support and positioning structures is formed for correctly positioning said fabric for sewing or quilting operations and for increasing safety and operational speed of sewing or quilting procedures, comprising:
a pin moor having a first end and a second end, and a connecting solid central portion; said first end and said second end are substantially circular and have a flat surface thereto; and where said central portion is curved and colored to provide a color-coded indicator to aid in sewing or quilting procedures by instructing the user where to sew, what sequence, and what stitches to use, 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 moor, or to any edge thereof, by partially piercing the pin moor with said pin, so that a surface network of fabric positioning structures and instructional color-coded indicators is formed by a plurality of said pin moors forming said surface network structure array of support, instructional, and positioning structures which can be positioned on any surface of the fabric and repositioned in different configurations and sizes as desired. |
