wonder clips are my favorite, they now have jumbo size. I could not get the hair clips to stay. I am sure it was just me. wonderclips are well worth the money and I purchased mine when Joanns had a 50 coupon.

I love the silver binding clips. i have lots of them and use them all the time. easy to use and strong too. not sure about comparing with hair clips though.
|
If you use the ladder stitch you don't need to use any clips or pins.
|
The clips labeled quilting do hold stronger then regular hair clips. I use to use them. I don't use anything but Clover Wonder Clips now.
|
I fold my binding to the back and then pin from the front, that way I don't get stabbed and thread does not get caught up in the pins

Has anyone used the Dritz binding clips? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=ATVPDKIKX0DER Are they stouter than regular hair clips that are about the same size and cheaper?

The box of clips from a quilting shop we found is cheaper than buying from chemist for hair. I find they hold in better than straight pins but I do like the wonderclipswhich grip fabric. You only need a few to but binding in place 12 inches in front of stitching. Although in desperation have used bulldog clips.

I use the binding clips also. I don't like pinning bindings. I use about 4-5 of them and move them down as I sew.
|
For me the binding clips are easier to put on and take off then the hair clips. My arthritic hands find it easier.
