Date: 11/27/12 7:28 PM I have them too and LOVE them. I have only used them to hold a quilt and binding together, or other layers of stuff. Not a bit of an issue. Can't vouch for denim though... |

Love the red bottom easier to find on cream carpet, top is clear for sewing ease. I used mine to restitch a knit 1/4 binding onto a knit cardigan. ------ Janome10001, Babylock ESG3, Brother ULT 2001, White 634D serger, Pfaff 1472, Singer featherweight, Singer 14T957Dc, Bernina FunLock 009DCC coverlock, Brother PQ1500S, Janome CP900. |

I sew bags with vinyl bottoms and can't use pins, so I need some sort of clip. I love mine. They're easier to work with than binder clips and hold things just as well. ------ Olivia, my Pfurple Pfaff Creative Performance

I know this is a personal preference, but if you had your druthers, would you purchase more than one 50-count box? If you started out with one box, how soon did you wish you had more?

Date: 11/28/12 8:19 AM I have 20 now...bought 2 sets of 10. 50 would probably do you for a while.
But, they are VERY handy for so many things. Once you have them on your sewing table you'll find many, many ways to use them. ------ Linda
