Clover Wonder Clips Pkg of 50, Red

Easy to use, and so much better than pins! I do a lot of stuff with binding, and these clips make it easier. Flat on the clear side so theyll glide along your machine surface, they clip with minimal bunching - way less than pins, and no pricked fingertips! There are places where, obviously, pins are the only alternative, but for edges, hems, bindings, etc., theyre really great.

Useful in ways i could not have anticipated. I use these as quick-release paper clips for organizing papers, as mini-clamps in the studio (they dont damage papers the way paper clips do), for fitting, for hemming, on the fridge with a tiny magnet to hold notes.... They are stronger than i ever expected, which is why they keep solving problems i didnt know I had ;-> I just ordered 2 more boxes- one for a friend who actually quilts, the other to break up into smaller batches & give to friends who make handmade books & other artwork. Cannot recommend this highly enough as a gift for people who make things - from fine art to kitsch ;->

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.

These are just cool! This was one of those impulse purchases; I didnt know I needed them until they popped up from another search I was doing, and the reviews were so great I thought Id give them a try. They really work and are well made. My husband commented on how strong the grip was! One note, however - if you have blond moments like I do, be careful about how you open the box. I opened it upside down and I was a devil to get the clips back in. Once I figured out how the container was SUPPOSED to open, I had no issues. But just a word to the wise since I totally spazzed on it!

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 make tactical bags, backpacks and tents and wonder clips hold the pieces together without slipping. I can run these up to the presser foot and easily remove them, I have problems inserting and removing pins due to the thickness of the fabric. I can assemble an entire pack to check how the pieces of fabric will fit ( no distortion like pins) then just move over to the sewing machine and get perfect seams every time. This 50 per pack is a great deal compared to the brick and mortar sewing stores. If you have to move your work around to mock up the fit these wont disappoint. Just bought a third pack of clover clips, I lose clips when I show friends how well the clips work. Seems the magic number for friends is 10 clips.

Pros: You dont have to worry about pricking yourself. They grip alright (but theyll pivot a little bit if you force them sideways) Easy to use. They dont require too much force to open. There are measured markings on the bottoms. They come in a sturdy clear plastic box. Cons: You can only use them on the edge. Large pieces of cloth will still need to be secured in the middle. Straight pins can also secure the fabric along the path of the needle, as opposed to just along the very edge, which helps limit warping. You *can* sew past them, but theyll have to be right on the edge, and even then, the fabric wont lie flat against the seam allowance markings. You cant sew right up to or over them the way you can with straight pins. They snag slightly and clatter against the front edge of your machine as you guide your fabric towards the needle and feed dogs.

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.

These clips held the three layers of my quilt sandwich just perfectly....I almost did not have enough to clip a full size quilt though, so be sure & order an extra package. Also, you can use them to clip your little squares, circles or whatever quilt pieces you need to organize. I cannot tell you how much you will like these clips. I intend to use them in my office area, instead of those bulky office clips, these are so much easier to work with. Also, you hobby people will find a lot of uses to hold objects together. Next purchase will be the larger size - I am sure I will find uses for those too.

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