Clover Wonder Clips Pkg of 50, Red

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.

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

I love these Wonder Clips and not just for my sewing projects! These are so strong and handy I find uses for them all over the home. I especially like them for their intended use in the sewing room as after years of sewing I was really tired of always getting stuck with the pins that held my projects together. I used lots of them to hold the edges of some fleece together for a blanket for our grandaughter, normal pins would disappear in the nap and I always ended up finding them when they would imbed themselves in my arm as I would fold the completed blanket up after I finished sewing it together, not so with the clips, you remove them as you come to them as you are sewing the seam. I also love that you are left with no pin holes in finer fabrics, I was finding that even the thinnest tiniest pins would leave holes in some of the finer fabrics, well no more, the clips go in the seam allowance and dont stab my arms as they make their way up to the presser foot of my machine. The price for these on Amazon is fantastic! I had bought two of the ten packs at the store and paid more for those 20 clips than I did for this pack here and got more than twice as many in this pack, even using a coupon at the store Amazon was less expensive!

I bought this because of the large number of 5 star ratings. Figured I would find something to complain about. Well, I did. I use them so much that I managed to lose one already! I bought these for English paper piecing and they are great. 11/7/12 Just ordered another box. I saw someone using them for binding clips on a quilt and I cant wait to try them. I had to buy more since my first order is tied up with English paper piecing. The clips are plastic, so wont leave paint or rust if you leave them with your project. The clippy end has one side that is flat and one side that has a ledge for gripping. Im probably not explaining that well, but cant think of better wording. The point is, there is usually a best side to have up (or down) on a given project. Getting max satisfaction probably depends on making sure that you are using the right side.

Easy to use, well-made from jewel-like plastic, these clips are, for some jobs, a worthy substitute for pins. In particular, for holding bias binding in place, which can be a prickly affair with pins, but not any more. These clips grip, rather than pierce the fabric, which might be important for some fabrics. They are supplied in a clear, easy to open box. Unlike bulldog clips these Wonder Clips remain tangle-free in the box, making them easy to select. I am sure these Wonder Clips will find their way into projects other than sewing. Their ease of use and versatility will soon have you forgetting about their price compared to a pack of pins. Brilliant product.

I was hesitant to buy these because of the counterfeit statements but I found my package to be quality clips. There is no way these are counterfeit. These are definitely Clover clips and an added bonus is the container which corrals the clips. The clips perform as they were intended. Seriously thinking about purchasing another package, a quilter can never have enough clips.

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.

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.

Saw these on the Amazon website and was intrigued. Since I had a Gift Card I added the package to my shopping cart while purchasing other items. When the items I arrived, I happened to be in the process of altering the hems on 4 pairs of jeans. I experimented with the first pair of jeans. They worked great, held the temporary hem securely while moving around the free-arm of my Janome sewing machine as I stitched. Easy to remove as the needle approached the clip. I had all the jeans altered in no time. Best part - no more pricked fingers from straight pins rotating around the free-arm!!! I know these will work well with quilt binding as well. I may be ordering a few more packages so I have enough on hand for various projects.

I am sewing waxed canvas seat cushions for an Airstream trailer I am renovating and needed something stronger than pins to hold the pieces of waxed canvas together when sewing. These worked great! They hold the fabric together well while still being able to apply and remove easily. No issues so far!
