This is what I do. I went to a binding class with a national teacher and this was her hint: buy a package of 10 and share it with 4 other quilting buddies .... or use only 1 and share with 9 quilting buddies. It works well for me even with my arthritis. I do admit, though, that I only h and bind really special quilts. Otherwise I machine bind.

Why use clips to hold the binding in place? I just fold the binding over, take about 5 stitches, pull the thread tight, and then fold another little bit and repeat the process. I don't have to pin and remove the pins, clip and remove the clips, etc. it is so much easier this way.

I went to the stationary dept at Walmart and bought the little binder clips that are used to clip paper together. The were about $4 and work very well, and for less money.

I am also a big fan of the Wonder Clips.

I use the hair clips with no problem.

I use regular hair clips I would rather use the extra money it would cost to buy wonderfully and buy fabric or a ruler

I use the small and mini binder clamps. From WalMart got 70 for 3.00 they work great

I love the wonder clips. However, I also have the girls hair clips.

I like color so love the hair clips. lol

I like the wonder clips, have also use the hair clips, but prefer the wonder clips over the hair clips. For those that don't even pin or clip, that's great, but for those that do pin or clip use whats easiest for you.
