    Default Clover Clips are great

    I have read a number of posts lately about the Clover Clips so I decided to check them out on ebay and also Amazon. Amazon had a great price of $22 for 50 so I purchased 100 to get free shipping. I was just finishing up a lapthrow when they came in the mail so I opened them up and started using them. I can tell you for sure that all of the great things that have been said about them are exactly true. I love these clips. I have tried hairclips, rubber coated paper clips with little success. Pins work pretty well but they stick you so these clips have now become a most valuable quilting item for me. I would strongly recommend these be added to your sewing/quilting necessities.

    this is the first I am hearing of them. So of course had to google them, there seems to be different kinds for different uses. Which ones are you speaking of? Must say the binding ones do have my interest peeked.

    I love them also. I only bought 10 because I just use them for one side at a time as I do the binding by hand, but they are really great!!!!!

    I didn't realize there were different kinds. I am speaking of the binding clips. I sew on my binding by machine and that is why I needed so many.

    I've been waiting to get some, didn't want to pay shipping. Haven't found them at JoAnns yet, but last week Hancock said they were going to be getting some.

    I find that they're helpful even for paper piecing. Once the ends of the seams are lined up by jabbing in the pins, I put the clips right on the sewing line making sure both sides line up and sew. Everything lays so flat and stays right where I want it to.
