I found some clips that were similar at Dollar Tree -- they are blue -- and I love them. Have not tried these.

I love mine and I have used hair clips,binder clips,pins those clips from Home Depot and now I know that these are the best.I don`t think you will be disappointed.I use more than 1,I use about 10 at a time.I bought the 50 pack at a sale and gave 2 of my quilting buds 10 apiece for Christmas and then another bought 10 from me.I think the are well worth the money.

Are you using these when you machine sew the binding on? Assuming here...your sew the binding on one side and then turn it and clip? Or hand sewing?

I bought the hair clips at Walmart and use them - they work wonderfully and were 12 for about 1.99.

I get 50 for a couple of bucks. They work great, but I would like to see how these work. I pick mine up at Wal Mart.

Hi Yes I always use them when attatching borders, they make sure the turn is even.However I use the hair clips,for some reason quilters notions tend to be twice the price in many cases
