Clover Wonder Clips Pkg of 50, Red

So far, Ive only used these with woven fabrics, so this review applies to them. Being a short person, I do a lot of hemming - sleeves, pants, etc. I can hem now in a fraction of the time it used to take using these little clips. I also have used them to secure bias tape binding to potholders, etc. They definitely hold better and are much faster than pinning or basting. Easier to remove as you sew than pins, and no more stuck fingers. Ive been sewing since the 60s and I would rank this as one of the best sewing items I have purchased in many years. Well worth the price. They seem sturdy and not that easy to break or fall apart.

Instead of using pins, I love using these Wonder Clips. Pins often distort the direction of the fabric you’re sewing. These clips keep everything aligned and securely in place. They are strong, durable and easy to use! They feature great holding capacity for many crafts. They open wide to hold layers of fabric while the clip base is flat for easy feeding to the presser foot. What a great addition to my sewing tools. I highly recommend this product!

Best clips for crafters, artists or hobbyists. Hold fabric, paper and little bits of felt, zippers, seams, multiple layers, soft things like fabric, hard things such as wood or cardboard. Useful in sewing, book making, jewelry, gluing, and pretty much anything that will fit between the jaws. Comes in a larger with longer throat style too that is just as good. The metal spring is so good. Durable and so versatile. Do not need pins for sewing and thus I do not poke myself and bleed on projects anymore.....Yes, I did this all of the time!

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.

I hate pinning. Leaving behind holes, losing pins in the carpet, pricking my fingers,... These are by far the best replacement. They hold on tight, even with very thin & slippery fabric (like double brushed poly) and super thick fabrics (I made slippers & lined blankets). Everything stays in place better than I can pin! The demarcations have different measurements. Im not sure how they are meant to be used, but I use them as a reminder to keep my seam allowance consistent. Id like to add that Im a novice sewist (going on 3 months) but I bought these for my mom (going on 40+ years) and she loves them! Shes diabetic and she doesnt need more pricking with while pinning.

I bought these from Amazon after my sister raved about them, and a pack of ten at JoAnns was crazy expensive. They cant be used in place of pins in every situation, but for many they are wonderful. I use them when I serge almost exclusively; pins can hurt and the serger knives dont like them at all. These just fly by the knives and needles. I also have the larger ones, but these are the most all purpose. My sister sews on leather, and they hold very securely. After she told me about them, I tried to cheap out and use plastic clothespins--what a mistake. They dont hold strongly enough, and are not as precise. These clips get right up to the seamline and hold securely. JoAnns has a pack of ten for $6.99 online ($10 in the store) and a pack of 50, like these from Amazon, is $32.99 online. I paid $11.99, plus shipping. 5 stars is what they rate!

This was a re-purchase to use as a gift. Ive had two boxes that Ive used for at least 8 years, and longer but not sure how long. I like that they are clear, can see through them to see where they are on edge of fabric. Storage box is nice addition. Easy to use, sturdy. None have broken. Highly recommend. Prefer to pinning the binding on quilts and other small items. They grip nicely and hold into place

This is a great product, but I probably couldve just used the mini binder clips I have in my office if I had thought about it before buying these. I just started quilting and Im definitely a wing-it type of person. If its close enough, then its good enough for me. Definitely not a professional here - I figure if my quilt top doesnt line up, Ill just trim off the edges and the quilt will be smaller than I originally intended by an inch or two. I intentionally avoid patterns that require high accuracy. The clips have markings for seam allowances and such, but mostly I use them to just clip the edges of my sewing projects without stabbing myself with pins, so Im not really using the markings on the clips. They work great though! Easy to clip on, unclip as I go, no blood stains from pin pricks, and the hard plastic carrying case is awesome for storage - Im not having to reach into a zipper baggie because Im too cheap to go out and buy a container specifically for the product. The bright red/hard plastic is also nice. Ive accidentally left pins in my quilts that I didnt see and found with my flesh. Ive also dropped pins on the carpet where I have to STOP EVERYTHING and find it so I dont forget about it or step on it. If I drop one of these its easy to find, and not quite so urgent.

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!!!!

These clips were recommended by a teacher I took a quilting class from. I bought them before finishing my first quilt thinking I HAD to have them for when I machine quilted. I actually did not; however, they have been used on other projects. The interesting thing is the measuring increments on the clips that aid when sewing hems or seams. That way you can leave them clamped on your project as you sew and because they are flat on the back so they move easily along your sewing machine bed. The larger clips have more measurements to use if you need that size for your projects. They work well for fabrics that dont pin easily too because they are either thick (layers for quilting) or too thin (silk, satins, etc). I still havent put the binding on that first quilt project so maybe Ill use them for that. Either way, I am glad I have them in my sewing supplies for future uses!
