Clover Wonder Clips Pkg of 50, Red

I saw these in a national retail box store for $49 and thought there had to be a cheaper alternative, so I turned to Amazon and found them for just under $12. As soon as they arrived I tore open the package and set to work on my latest quilt. These are excellent for holding sets of fabric together rather then pinning everything. When I am quilting I like to lay everything out after I have cut all my pieces. I then use the clips to keep the pieces in the appropriate pile so I can just grab the next one and sew them together. They also work great when basting or adding the border/binding. However, while the price was great I have to say that like some others have posted not all my clips are functional. Right out of the box I had 5 that had no tension at all with a few of those having the metal clip wobbling loosely. After using them only twice I am now down another 3 that will no longer hold tension. With 16% of the product already worthless it seems to me that I should expect several more to fail before too long and probably should not expect to have them all last more then a few years. That is a bit disheartening. I understand nothing last forever and anything using tension as a method of holding is bound to have some loosening over time, to have 15%+ fail within a day or two is not at all acceptable. Even with that though this is still a fairly good product that DOES make my time at the sewing machine much easier. I would rather slide a clip off rather than undoingsafety pins or sticking myself every few minutes with a straight pin.

Pricey, but would buy again. These are handy for numerous craft creations. Takes the place of pins..no more pricked fingers.

Got these for my wife who quilts. They sat on her table for a few months - unopened. Then last night when she put the edging on a quilt, she came down all happy - Those clips saved a good hour of time I would have spent pinning the edge on to sew it. Lots of other great reviews on this product - thats why I got it it for her as a gift. Good to see it is as useful as others say.

Recently, I discovered the little red clips called Wonder Clips by Clover. They are excellent for holding down the binding to the quilt top during the handsewing part. They grip well and can be used to keep curved seams in place during the piecing process and so on. I have used them in place of straight pins when several layers of fabric were involved for a small project. The delivery was very prompt and in fact arrived earlier than the promised delivery period. The well wrapped package arrived in excellent condition. Hint: the package of 50 clips (as compared to packages of 10) may seem a lot, but I have used every one of them on my quilts. Great product and great service.

In my opinion these are much better than straight pins. These clips are fast to use, hold layers secure, easy removal as you sew and they don’t stick my fingers or get lost in the fabric and run over by machine needle. This is my second set of clips, purchased for a stocking stuffer for my daughter as we were both so impressed with mine. I use these for both fabric and paper. They work to hold 2 layers of cottonthin up to quilting sandwich thickness.

I rarely need to use pins anymore because of these, which means I dont bleed all over the quilts Im making anymore! I make a lot of cosmetic bags and I just couldnt make them as easily with regular pins. These are amazing. They have a nice, secure hold, I can move a project around from work area to work area, drag it all over my lap and these stay put. Amazing for putting a binding on. Seriously, you need to try these, they will change your whole sewing game. Get a big pack, youll want them :)

I purchased a box of 50 from a local store and absolutely loved them. I used them to hold the binding on quilts and still do. They are fantastic, much better than pins. They hold without puckering the material! and if you machine bind your quilts, the markings on the clips (a little hard to see) do really help you not catch the binding on the front while stitching the binding on the back side of the quilt. Reason for 2 stars: I loved these so much I purchased an additional 50 pack box here on Amazon. When I started using them it was bad, bad, bad. About half of the clips broke on first use. The metal strip that hold the clip tight became loose making the clip useless. I was so disappointed! I can understand a few breaking but 50 percent is just unacceptable. I dont know if I just received a bad batch or the company has changed the metal they are using. Either way it makes me a little hesitant of ordering them again. Surprisingly I received an email from Amave (the seller) asking me how my shopping experience was. I explained what happened and told them that I didnt feel like it was their fault, they didnt manufacture them, which is why I hadnt contacted them. To my surprise they emailed me back and refunded the purchase price as they said they didnt feel like I should be out the money. WOW! great customer service!!!!

I would highly recommend these clips to anyone who loves to sew, either clothing or quilting. When I first saw these little guys I just knew I had to have them, and yep I was right. I still use pins or weights to cut my patterns out with, but when it comes to piecing them together these wonder clips are excellent. They hold the fabric firmly together, yet they are easy to adjust if you need to, and when it comes to things like 1/4 hems thats where they really shine and there is never any fabric distortion like when you use pins. This is a must have that will make any sewist smile....

Bought this as a gift a long time ago. I figured better late than never... My mother in law is one of those master quilter types. She makes beautiful quilts and wall hangings. When I drew her name for secret santa, I hit the web and tried to find creative gifts that relate to her hobby/passion. Well, these fit the bill. She loved them. Of course, she had already been using them for however long, but she appreciated the fact that I did some research and thought into it anyhow.

The real reason I bought this was because I just wanted to spend money that I dont have. My expectations were that I was getting a gimmicky item I wouldnt use. However, having left all my pins at another house I used them. They are way easier. Also, way better as the fabric layers stay flat and dont pucker. The hold is tight enough they hold strong. I had multiple layers of fabric with different folds in the one layer, and should normally have tacked the first folds before pinning the next layer, but having the pinch clips at the edge of the fabric was better and I easily just went straight to my machine. I dont know how to say why that this was so much easier and better, but really it just was. Glad to use these instead of pins whenever possible.
