During my Aeroplane bag making I was extremely grateful for the Clover Wonder Clips that I bought a while back. I love these, such grip and no pins- perfect! Bag making, quilts, thick layers- denim etc and awkward things like darts- all are good for these. I dpon't see why you couldn't use them with knitted items and I certainly use them with jersey knits especially with the overlocker where I really don't want to hit a pin! So I was very pleased to see that Eternal Maker have these newly added to their shop!
I think I need another pack of these, 10 is good but 20 would be better. Clover notions in general never disappoint so I though I would check out the other Clover items at Eternal Maker.
The Protect and Grip thimble is soft silicon in 3 sizes with a metal top for pushing a needle. I have one of these in medium and it is a more wearable and comfortable thimble than many others that I have tried over the years.
This is a cutie, a Clover flower/yoyo maker . Brioni recently sent me one of these and I can't wait to try it out. Good for key fobs and as an addition to a bag maybe? And there is a heart too! Love that!
If you don't have a Hera marker and you are a quilter, please buy one! I know it doesn't look very exciting but it is the best tool for marking straight lines for quilting and double up for putting creases in card. The creases wash out and there are no worries about blue residue! I also use it when making bias trim on clothing. Creasing the bias fabric strip rather than pressing in 1/4" gives a much better result and less distortion.
I haven't tried these Clover Chaco pens but they are on my wish list, especially for garment marking. There are refills available too so they are a sustainable item (always as good thing). If you have experience of these please let me know how you got on with them in a comment.
What no fabric?
Yeah right, just kidding. Clover links nicely to the new Heather Ross fabric line for Windham, 'Briar Rose'. Availble for pre-order now, you just know it is going to be incredibly popular.
This is my favourite print- pink and green is a top combo and I love berries obviously! You can see all the prints that are going to be stocked here and they are ready to take your pre-order (fabric is due to arrive July /Aug). I am pretty excited that is available in jersey as well as quilting cotton.
Not just for children right? I would love a berry T- shirt and I have had some success with knits recently (will post some pics soon).
And to end with, a Clover print from the Heather Ross quilting cottons.
