I bought extra sets super cheap when I found an online discounter that had a going out of business clearance sale of buy one get two free! I posted the link then for everyone but my post was deleted. I have all my secret pal and guild nice gifts covered for the rest of the year. Yeah! Clover clips and Pinmores are the top two most useful tools for quilting I've bought in the last few years.

I purchased 2 packages of 10 because I found a good sale on them. I used them on my last baby quilt with bias binding and LOVED them! I could only do a portion of the binding at a time which was the only draw back I found with my limited supply. I found the 50 count a couple of weeks later at a great price and free shipping so I grabbed them. Now I have 70 of them and I should be able clip the whole binding on a baby quilt! I haven't tried a larger quilt yet but if I need to, I'm not unwilling to buy more! I am sooooo tired of pin pricks in my hands, arms, chest and legs when I do my bindings!

Here is a link to Clovers site for the clips, for those like me who have never heard of them. They look neat, but I finish my binding by hand and simply use binder clips from the dollar store in the same way.

The frugal way to go is the dollar store, buy the hair clips that you bend to pop them open , I got them 12 for $1. They are wonderful, no jags or catching thread on pins. Just a little tip. Ruth

I also bought regular hair clips at the dollar store before I purchased the Clover clips. I could not get them to stay on so I wound up pinning my binding anyway.
