Does anyone use the little binding clips that kind of look like hair barrettes? You use them to hold your binding in place while you blind stitch.

If you do use them, do you like them?

I have some, but I have never used them.

I use them and like them but I don't think they're necessary. I have them so might as well use.

Yes, I use them with every binding. It's easier on my hands if I don't have to pinch it together myself. I've had mine for many years. I'm sure I've gotten my money's worth many times over.

Never tried them

I bought the actual hair clips from the dollar store and used them when binding all the mug rugs I made for xmas gifts. best idea ever - no pins pricking me and easy to remove. use them - you'll like them.

I used some binder clips last time instead of so many pins that always end up sticking me. Maybe that is why they are called binder clips? :):):)

I most definitely use them, a lot of them. especially when I'm going to hand stitch my binding down. if i want to machine stitch it, i tend to use straight pins, a lot of them.

I use the hair clips all the time for holding my binding while I hand sew - really hate getting pin pricks.

I use them when I'm free motion quilting also...just a little extra area held in place till I'm ready to do that section.
