> 3 dayThe clips are sturdy and are ideal to use when hand binding quilts. I’ve purchased generic clips that end up breaking easily. This brand is quality!

> 3 dayThese clips are amazing! I use them in so many ways. I use them to hold my binding on when hand stitching it down. I use them to hold handles onto tote bags. I use them to pin my hair up if Im busy at the sewing machine and its annoying me! These clips will pretty much do it all. No wonder they are called wonder clips! These are a must have for any quilter...and probably good for other sewing too. These would also make a great gift for your sewing friends who may not splurge on them for themselves!

> 3 dayLisa Lams book, A Bag For All Reasons, suggested the use of these clips. I was buying something else on Amazon so threw these in to the order, free shipping, you know! I have sewn a few times since receiving the clips and have found them to be quite useful! While sewing a zip pouch for my Etsy shop, Stitchuation, I found the clips easier to use than pins to keep the lining, zipper, and exterior clamped tidily together before and while sewing it all together. Also while keeping bag handles in place before sewing, the clips were much better than pins. I am quite a fan of these clips and thank Lisa Lam for letting me know about them!

> 3 dayThe ones I bought are the genuine ones. They are made in Japan and have a very satisfying glossy smooth finish, strong grip, and smooth action. They are very sturdy. I have been using them for sewing and they work better than pins for most things.

> 3 dayGREAT price! I use these clips for fastening bias quilt binding on my quilts. The clips are easy to hold and to position, they hold fabric/batting and binding in place, no sharp points, no pin pricks, no danger for yourself or your kitties or other pets if you store the piece for later sewing or if you travel with it. I bought 4 packs and use them all of the time. They come packaged in a cool clear plastic storage container. The price on Amazon is amazing as opposed to many local shops and on line specialty stores that I researched prior to purchase. Thank you.

> 3 dayThe 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.

Greater than one weekI love using these clips instead of pins in sewing projects. They hold fabric tightly and have the advantage of not pricking unsuspecting fingers

> 3 dayI use these in quilting any time I can rather than use straight pins - for holding cut pieces together, for securing corners and fabric folded on bindings prior to stitching, for holding pieces and labels together, etc. Both this size and the larger size have a space for the fold in the fabric, they hold fabric securely without damaging it, and are easy to attach and remove with my weak hands. Someone wisely said buy them in bulk - 50 pk and that was very good advice. With several stations in my quilting room and a supply bad outfitted for classes, I probably have 200 of the red and 100 of the green and still sometimes run out. GREAT PRODUCT!

> 3 dayMy mom bought a package of these a while back and I used them when I was visiting her. She uses them for her sewing, I use them for quilt binding mostly. My teenage daughter was having problems with a quilt she was binding not long ago, I didnt have enough clips around, and the ones I had werent as sturdy as these. I had forgotten all about ordering my own set like moms by the time I got home, so I got on the computer and ordered a couple (this and the large size) for my daughter. She loves these, I love these, Ill need more since we both swipe them for our projects.

> 3 dayMy mother does a lot of sewing… from quilt bindings to teeny-tiny hems on doll dresses, these have proven to be waaay better than straight pins for so many jobs. -Tight clipping and dont slip -Open wide enough that she even used them on a multi-layer padded upholstery project -Easy to see -Easy to use -Good on any edge seam you can imagine Im not usually one to try to improve on the wheel and I was worried that these might just be higher cost with no real benefit… but Im happy to report that our family is now a Clover Wonder Clip family. P.S. They are MUCH cheaper on Amazon than they are in craft and sewing stores!
