Red Snapper Quilting Frame Loading System
 

Have any of you ever used these? Another quilter mentioned them to me and said it really knocks time off of loading your quilt on your frame instead of pinning. Just wondered what everyone's thoughts were...saving time is always a plus! Thanks for your feed back!

I love mine. Just have to make sure that there is enough extra length on the quilt backing because the snappers take up a little more fabric than when backing is pinned on the leader (you don't have to ask how I found this out).

I love my red snappers! So much faster, easier than all the pins needed to load a large quilt

there is other brands also I have the blue ones and just love them. I would probably get the one that were the best buy as all are about the same/

I have the blue system (Leadergrips) and they are great.

Ditto, love mine! much faster!

Yup, Leader Grips here and I love them! No more need for band-aids! I'm sure they're all basically the same.

Shop and compare.

Red Snappers
Leadergrips
Mondo Grips

They are all similar products.

I personally have Red Snappers, bought gently used from a friend, paid half of what they retail for.

I have the leader grips, but I don't use them. I'm used to pinning now. I've thought about selling the leader grips, but I don't like the idea of having to place an ad etc, so they've been pushed to the back of a closet and forgotten for two years now. I probably should make an effort to sell them.....

Love my Red Snappers! One of the 'ahHA' moments in my long arm journey. I would purchase them again in a HEARTBEAT!!

Have them, use them and love them.

Yes, definitely worth the money. We always use the red snappers.( 12 ft frame )

I use them on my Innova but have found they catch at the first till they past the deadbar. Of course I could make my backing longer but I hate to waste any more fabric than I have too. And yes, the fabric I trim off afterwards does go back into my scrap pile so its not really wasted, is it?

I'm looking into the magnetic strips at Harbor Freight for use on the belly bar as I like to float my quilts. Usually I just add a few straight pins along the bar. On my old frame I was able to find some PVC "C" clamps to attach to the belly bar but haven't been able to find them for the larger diameter pole I have now. Any clues folks?

My mother-in-law bought Red Snappers at the Madison Quilt Expo last year and she LOVES them!!!
