I'm a fan of these. Have tried the hair clips but wasn't impressed. I love these for binding as it means no more pin pricks for me. You won't be sorry you bought them. Happy quilting.

I use the hair clips too I love them!

I use hair clips from the dollar store.

I've looked at them but thought they were a little too pricey for me but we just got back from the local Indian Casino and I won so I'm off to spend some of my winnings LOL We're celebrating our 42nd wedding anniversary today with dinner and a little gambling. I'm new to quilting so slowly I'm building a stash and thought these would be good to have too. I'm just trying my hand at quilting after sewing for so many years but only have taken a couple of classes online, bought a few kits too but have learned so much from you LADIES, thank you!

As others have mentioned, I use hair clips from the dollar store. I like the bright colors.

I ordered some of these clips (50 pk) and was wondering if anyone else has tried them? Do you like them or not? What are your opinions about them? Just hoping that I didn't make a mistake in buying them but I have been eyeing them since I first seen them in a magazine.

Just found this video on how to use the wonder clips....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zqtj6xG4Sg and I found them on sale this week at http://www.beavercreekquiltcompany.c...20clips%20sale

Like SteadyStitching I use the Sharon Shamber method here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PE0Yq9iGlc
No clips needed and it holds without sticks and pricks. I am surprised that more people don't know about and use this method. |
On bed size quilts , I use wonder under ( a skinny strip ) to "baste" the binding into place on the whole quilt prior to sewing. That way no pins no clips .
