    Does anyone use the Red Snappers for attching quilts to their leaders of the long arm table. They look pretty interesting but before I invest I would like the pro's and con's from those who have used them.

    Thank you

    I have them, they work great. The only drawback to them is that someone with arthritic hands may not be able to use them. They take some push to get snapped on.:)

    I have them and love them. I can load a quilt in no time and takes a second to unload. They are a little hard to snap
    on at first but they do loosen up with use.

    My exact thoughts. They are fast.

    She would never find that thread... if this is the one you're talking about. In my haste I spelled Snapper wrong..
