    Default Anyone used Clover Wonder pins?

    https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop.../-/wonder-pins
    I saw these for the first time today and ordered them from Wal-Mart for only $12.39/package plus sales tax. They are being shipped postage free from Quilt in a Day, who sells them for $18.75 or $16.88 on sale!!

    Interesting idea. Especially for those whose have problems with regular safety pins.

    BTW, this is the first I have heard of them. If you try them let us know how they are.

    I have some and like them but I agree they are pricey. I just used them and they worked well. I got mine on Ebay- Quilt in a Day's store. Don't remember what I paid for them. There ebay store always has free ship.

    I have been using them for several years. They are much better the pins. I have all sizes, the mini, regular and jumbo. The Cover brand is excellent quality and they are sturdy clips. I have bought other clips that were cheaper but they tend to break.

    This is the first time I have ever heard about them. I stopped pin basting some time ago. The video was helpful in showing them off and how they worked. Not something I would need.

    oops I'm sorry I thought the post was about Clover Wonder clips. I have used the curved pins before with the jacket and they are excellent if you pin baste.

    I bought some and it took me a bit to get used to them. i over compensated in trying to get them to close. easy does it and not too much will work just fine. They are interesting but not the only thing out there. Have fun if you try them.

    My Clover pins arrived this week and I think I'll like them. Not quite as useful as their clips which I love, but a great replacement for regular pins and easy to open and close for my stiff fingers. No more puckering as I struggle to pin layers together.
