    I used them for the first time recently, and I liked them.

    I use them when I bind by hand - got pin stabbed one too many times!

    I use them and they are great. I just put them on about 15 - 20 inches, stitch that section and put more on. They really help me.

    I have some, have used them, once. Personally, I don't like them.

    I saw a tip on Fons and Porter to use the large, plastic-coated paper clips. Much cheaper than the clips and who cares if some get lost?

    I use them and love them, hope to get my mom to use them, she uses asprin and blood thinner everyday and she has never made a quilt that doesnt have some kind of blood stain on it. Think it would help so she doesnt get stuck.

    I've been using the same package of binding clips for years, no more pricks from straight pins and they help to keep the corners nice and crisp. May in Jersey
