Clover Wonder Clips Pkg of 50, Red

I bought these for a friend. I have some and use them whenever I can instead of pins. They are just the perfect size. Better than being stuck with a pin.

When I saw these Clover Wonder Clips, I had to give them a try. They are like mini-clamps, and youll find them helpful for all kinds of crafting functions, including: 1) Applied Binding for Quilts -- That needs to be hand tacked, and these clips hold the fold over to make it easier on your hands. Yes, I also use spring clips, but Wonder Clips are just a little bit nicer. 2) Sewing Vinyl or Laminated Fabrics, you cant use pins because theyll leave permanent holes. Mini binder clips slide off, but Wonder Clips stay in place. 3) Gluing Layers -- paper, fabric, etc. Holds everything in place until the glue dries. There are measured markings on these clips that you might find useful. Use the clip like a gauge. The price on the box of 50 Wonder Clips cant be beat! The pack of 50 comes in a hard storage box. Also available in a package of ten clips.

I love these clips! They make sewing much easier and I dont have to worry about damaging my fabrics. They are easy to open but still maintain a strong grip on the material. I wish they were a little cheaper though...I paid about $15 for this box of 50clips (including s/h), so they are much, much more expensive than using pins but I guess you pay for the convenience. They were still a lot cheaper on here than they were in the store, I think walmart sells a box of about 15clips for $12, and joanna fabrics had the box of 50clips selling for a little over $30! Over-all, I highly recommend these and will definitely be buying some more. :)

I use these for sewing and piecing together knitting. They’re fantastic, durable, easy to use. Faster than pinning sometimes

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.

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!!!!

This is an interesting product for the sewist. I saw these clips in one of my sewing and fabric store ads but they were very expensive. Looked like something I wanted to try, so I ran to Amazon to see what the price was and it was just a fraction of the sewing store price. I do like them in place of pins, the only problem I can see is that on flimsy fabrics, they are a bit heavy when you are using a lot of them. They are great, though, when sewing on fabrics that leave pin holes. I havent used them when sewing bias tape but I think they would be really helpful for that, as well. I do recommend for your stash of sewing toys.

These are definetly the true Wonder Clips and they work great for tightly securing your quilting layers, bindings, etc. Plus, you get a good, sturdy, easy open and close storage box. However, BEWARE if you have arthritis in your fingers and/or thumbs, these are not for you!! They take a great deal of finger strength to use.

Reading all the reviews I figured these clips would be a lifesaver. Well, I guess I was wrong. Heres my take on them: Pros - you cant stick yourself with a needle - they have markings for seam allowances Cons - they are bulky - they take up a lot of space when stored - you cannot sew over them as you can with pins if you place them perpendicular to your seam - they are a pain to take off close to your presser foot Oh, did I mention you cannot sew over them? Right. Seriously, I dont understand the hype around these things. Even at half price off they are way overpriced compared to regular sewing pins. You can get 100 pins of varying lengths, ballpoint, etc. for $5 easily. These cost 3 times as much when half-price off and dont get the job done as precisely as pins. I sew a lot with stretch and PUL fabric and they are worthless in that area. Plus, if you sew clothes or other items you usually mark your seamline anyway or you use the gauge on the maching; so there really is no need for the seam markings on the clips. Perhaps they are more useful than pins for quilters or people sewing with multiple thick layers, but for clothesmaking they certainly are not. ***UPDATE 09/25 Based on the comments on my review, it seems that I have hit a sensitive spot by even bringing up the fact that one could possibly sew over pins. Admittedly, I sometimes sew over pins, perpendicular to the seam-very slowly and with a larger stitch length. Is it the preferred course of action-no, but certain types of fabric do require it from time to time. (However, I certainly do not sew over pins with my serger.) Regardless of one sews over perependicular pins or not, these clips are still way overpriced. Perhaps quilters are happy with them and love them for their binding, nonethless, garment sewers who might use these only occassionally can get binder clips and get away much cheaper.

GREAT 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.
