NEW! Gammill Quilt Clips
NEW from Gammill – Quilt Clips!  Gammill quilt clips are now available for both HomePro tables (1.5-inch roller) and GS tables (2-inch roller). Quilt clips provide an easy and fast way to control and adjust the layers of fabric on your quilting frame. The quilt clips slide over the fabric and frame rail, keeping the quilt layers together. They expand to adjust to thickly rolled fabric. The clips are perfect for:
  • Making quick adjustments to keep your fabric straight.
  • Maintaining tension for quilting, even when unpinning the end of your quilt.
  • Floating fabric layers.
A package includes four quilt clips, each of which are 24-inches long. MSRP is $49 (US Dollars).
