ibotti Quilt Clips for Quilting, 12 Pack – 3 Inch Heavy Duty Plastic Quilt Roll Clips, Quilting Clips Hold Quilt Rolled, Easy to Use, Won’t Scratch Machine, White, for Queen Size Quilt Projects

Great to roll up quilts as you go

I quilted a 7ft x 7ft quilt with high-loft poly batting on a conventionally-sized Brother sewing machine. Quilting that piece would have been beyond difficult without the clips. That is a huge quilt. When I rolled it up to apply the clips, I found I needed clips maybe 2 inches or 1.5 inches. The 3 inchers hung on loosely and sometimes fell off. Again, I'm not sure I could have completed my 7x7 project without the clips. I certainly would buy again. I would pay more for smaller, tighter clips.

This was exactly what I was looking for to keep my quilts rolled while doing free motion quilting. It's not as easy as I thought it would be once they were rolled using this product, but it does make it somewhat easier. I just finished a quilt that was a little larger than full size, almost queen, and used these. When I reached the middle of the quilt, it was still difficult to feed it through the harp of the machine, but not as difficult as trying to do so without them! It would have been nice to have some larger clips in the package for larger quilts. I would definitely recommend these if you're doing a smaller quilt - like a twin or crib size. It doesn't scratch your sewing machine and they are durable enough to stretch around the quilt easily.

If you quilt on a domestic machine you need these clips. I have 8 now and I bought 8 for my sister. They make quilting so much easier. I love them!! They reduce the bulk under my machine and just snap on and off. Love them!!

Smaller than expected and don't hold the rolled quilt tightly.

These helped me with bulk while quilting a panel. They stayed in place and very easy to use

They worked fine for quilting. Very sturdy plastic. Definitely worth it for the price. They are very plain and clip well onto quilt and are stable

So far so good with these. We placed them about every 14-16" which is probably a little overkill, but far better than trying to manage a quilt that unrolls mid stitch. I was expecting these things to be not quite as sturdy as they seem or have much spring to them, but they are surprisingly tough. How long they last and how many uses is a bigger question that can only be answered with time. I normally wouldn't have bought these but it seems that the metal version used for pants leg retention on a bike are hard to come up with.
