clover clips

I love my clips. I use them for binding and other things. I found one of the quilt shops had 100 of them for a reasonable price during a shop hop and I now have 150. They are worth the money.

Sometimes free motion quilting on the panel part can be very beautiful on the front and the back. I like panels if they are printed straight and you don't have to fuss with them.
