Watch your office supply places. I bought clips from Staples Offfice Supply - 30 for $1.00 on sale. They came in three different sizes. They are metal spring action in bright colors and work great. I love them. (Needless to say I bought several packs and am set for life.....) I'm sooooo cheap

They work better than pins when matching up corners and keeping points pointy. They have a flat side so they don't buckle the fabric and cause problems. I have 10 and I count them every time I use them and put them back in the container. It works for me!

these do NOT work the same as the clover clips...they work for they are meant for, but do not lie flat, nor have the teeth and they are bulky and have the handles that get in the way.....I use binder clips for my paper piecing patterns though!
