David, I am behind (digest and a holiday here), but your idea is neat...just working out the details and modifications.
The first thing that came to mind is a thumb tack at the bottom of a bobbin that would conjoin with the magnetic strip. But the only one I can think of it working on is the bottom (or side) of a square bobbin (as on the side or more standard styles, it could get caught and also provide a rough spot when removed and obvious damage to something of quality). Then the magnetized strip could be cut to host it and would sit at the bottom of the bobbins (or on the side), with grosgrain ribbon (or twill tape) glued with E6000 at the ends that could be pinned to the pillow if needed, or have loops that they could be hosted upon something (like a doweled holder...even holes could be punched into the magnetic strip itself). It would depend upon if they held, if they did it reliably, and without magnetizing pins, which are all pretty delicate adjustments. If more ideas come up, I will write.
