Clips & Magnetic Pins

Hold the layers, keep the flow.

Sewing clips and magnetic holding tools can help with binding, bag seams and materials where pinholes are unwelcome. Choose the style that suits the edge or area you need to hold.

Choosing, using & project ideas
  • Clips: Compare jaw size and opening with your fabric stack; position clips along the edge.
  • Magnetic helpers: Check each tool's intended job and the manufacturer's directions for use around your equipment.
  • Pin storage: A magnetic holder collects pins; it does a different job from a magnetic fabric-holding tool.

Try this: Keep a quilt binding aligned or hold a layered bag edge together, removing holding tools as you reach them.
