What a great review. Something to add to my wish list. Great wall hanging too

Thank you for reviewing these!

Interesting review, and an amazing wall hanging 🙂

Could you tell me how wide these ‘small’ clips are, trying to work out what size to order but not much information online and there seems to be regular size, small size and mini, Thanks

So glad you enjoyed your first retreat experience at Quilt Sandwich.

Loved reading this Val.

Very interesting

Well said!
It’s all too easy to pick up a pattern with no thought to the hours spent designing, creating and perfecting, we just see a design we’d like to copy. But I’ve often heard at quilt shows “ get it, i’ll copy it when we get home”.

I really love the sewline glue pen for applique too. It holds the edges under well, but doesn’t cause any problems with your needle. I have tried using regular glue sticks, and while they are a lot cheaper, you can’t beat the sewline pen for its fine tip, better hold, and being a type of glue that just seems to work much better on fabric.

Use this all the time

Great idea! I currently use my large eyed gold plated cross stitch needles as they are a bit easier to thread.

Personally I found these would shred the thread more often than not when I used them. I am however the pleased owner of some Spiral Eye needles which work in a similar fashion (without the shredding) and they are excellent.
