So easy and no more pokey pins

Love the Sew tites. I am using them on my longarm. Sure makes loading the backing of my quilts much faster.

My mom and I quilt together. My mom is 74, and pinning can sometimes be a physical pain and an annoyance. When I saw the Sewtites, I showed my mom and she exclaimed "get them!!!" We are hooked, literally! Love them, and they make loading the long arm so much easier and quicker!!

These are a wonderful system to eliminate all the straight pinning for the long arm. I have installed the magnum magnetics in all 3 leaders and they are working great. They are thin enough to not get in the way of rolling the large quilts onto the frame.

My Sew Tites are the answer to keeping my fingers clear of any blood that could get on my quilts. They are the best tool on the market in the last ten years.
Do not know what I’d do without them.
Tasha S.
I love this idea for loading quilt backing to my roll up bar. I will save up to purchase more for the other 2 bars on my longarm.
Super happy how easy this was to load!!!
Kelly M.
The customer is fantastic at Sewtites. Ashlee was wonderful in helping me get the right products and quick delivery. I am almost done sewing in the plate in all my leader clothes. I found a great video to make side leaders with my blue material with the smaller magnetics to elimate having to pin the side leaders on too. Can’t wait to start quilting
Lee H.
I’m sure it will be great but I haven’t used them yet. I bought two longarm packs for my new longarm and sewed up the casings into the new leaders. I slid the magnet backs into the casings 6 inches apart and sewed the seam on each side to keep them in their place. There’s no reason why these won’t be the perfect choice. I’m so glad I didn’t buy more red snappers to fit the 12 ft frame. Yes, the magnets are extremely expensive and a lot harder to slide apart than it looked but certainly doable. I’ll have to buy some more (probably a five pack) to fill in a few gaps but then it’ll be completely installed. Yay
Nicole R.
I’m fairly new to longarm quilting but learned very quickly that pinning was not for me. I struggled with the purchase price but realized after loading the first backing that the time savings was well worth it. I would recommend the Sew Tites Magnums to every longarmer!
Treese P.
Just started using Sew Tites on my longarm after a friend recommended them for easy loading of quilt backs. I took the plunge and bought 3 boxes. It was easy to sew them into my leaders, and a little trial & adjusting, I was able to load my first back! Yay! No more pins pricking my fingers and it turns it out, this method is much faster. I was concerned about large quilts ( I quilt a large number of queen and king quilts for customers), but they work just fine. I do take off the top magnet strips the extras on the shorter quilts so I don't have to fight with the magnets sticking to the frame in unwanted locations. I love them and will be trying the smaller magnets for my hand work items. Great product--worth the money!!

I finally got them installed on my Longarm and loaded my first quilt it was great and so fast.

You can use Sewtites with your longarm and embroidery hoops and also holding patterns or recipes to a metal book rack. Sizes for every need
Awesome customer service!!!
Patricia S.
I used them for the first time this week. I loaded the minky backing very quickly and was very happy with the result.
Thank you for the awesome product.
George G.
Super easy to add on to my leaders, & SUPER EASY to load my quilt!!!! Loaded in 8 minutes!! What used to take me 1/2 hour!!!!! Love them!
Jayne D.
I purchased sew tite magnums to use with my longarm...What a game changer. Love em. No more pinning or unpinning. Keeps the quilt right where i place it on my leaders.
Pam H.
Love them.
Trish E.
I love these Magnum sew tites. They have made my longarm sewing so much better!!!
This is a booster set to the large set i already use.
I would definitely recommend these!
Jane M.
Makes loading the backing and quilt top a breeze no matter what size quilt onto the gallery frame.
Catherine H.
As soon as I receved the Sew Tites Magnum I used them to put a small quilt on my longarm. It was sooo nice not to have to pin.
Edy F.
Just got my longarm machine put together and sewed the metal strips into the 2 cloth leaders I will use. I'm so excited to get started. As soon as I saw the video, I knew I had to get them to eliminate the need to spend all that time pinning layers to the frame's leaders. Now I can skip that step and save time and effort loading quilts on the frame! Brilliant idea!!
Barbara C.
I tried different magnets, which did not work. Sewtites work wonderfully. Allows you to load quilt fast. No pin pricks. Highly recommend
Janine M.
I am new to long arm quilting, and saw where Becky Thompson demonstrated how to load a quilt quickly (and without pin sticks!!!) with your Magnums...so I ordered. So happy I did!!
Lynda V.
I use the SewTites Magnums on my long arm and love them. They make loading my quilts so fast and easy—a game changer.
I would recommend them to all my friends.

Linda H.
Theses magnets are a must for longarm quilting as they cut a person's prep time in half not to mention no more stabbing from the basting pins!! A great investment to help with quilting.
Anthony D.
This was my 4th box of SewTites Magnums and they are life-changing! I'm terrible at pinning, and I could never get those Red Snapper gizmos to go on straight without bowing. The SewTites are so simple to use...and they are very strong. I sewed the thin back pieces into the channels of my leaders, so now the loading of my backing and top is a snap to do. The price is well worth it...I highly recommend them!
Carol P.
Awesome love them
Shelly Z.
It took a few quilts to get used to the new method of loading quilt backs, but after about 5, it was great. I'm always looking for more efficient ways to set up quilts, and this is by far the best!
Jennifer J.
Bought one box wasn't sure, hand quilt and it was so much easier to load than pining! Will be buying two more boxes later for all three rails! Great product to have!
Becky R.
Just got them sewn in to my leaders and WOW just WOW. Loaded a quilt back in minutes. Easier in so many ways.
Judy H.
I’ve taken the zippers off my longarm leaders because I like this method better.
Fred U.
SewTites, my fingers thank you. No more bleeding. Great little gadgets. My wife says I'll have to find something else to cuss about because these do work.
Laura O.
They are not user friendly at all. I am back pinning. Wish I would not have paid $300 for these
Andre E.
They sure make it easier to load my quilts. you need 22 for a 12 ft frame. I got 3 sets I just use the top by using 8 inches on the leader instead of 6 inches. The extra magnets can be used on the other leaders for the backing leaders.
I do a lot of King size quilts works for me sure beata pinning.
K
took a total of 71 magnum sewtites with my 12ft frame. All 3 bars now fitted. Made loading my quilt much easier no finger sticks.
Carol P.
Awesome
GINGER W.
Perfect! So easy to load a quilt on my longarm!
Deb K.
I have been longarm quilting for 18 years and this system for mounting quilts is the best accessory I've ever invested in! Thank you and thanks to the Longarm League for such a great video showing how to use the magnet system.
Carol P.
Awesome
Rebecca R.
Love these! It is worth getting the pack of 20!
Charlotte
Completely game changing for loading quilts on a longarm machine. Brilliant.
Jane H.
These work amazingly well on my longarm!! I’m so happy with them!!
Kathleen L.
Love my Sew Tites use them to load my quilt tops. Makes it so easy.
Dawn R.
I use to dread pinning my quilt back on to my long arm. My back would hurt so bad after I finished loading I had to wait and start quilting the next day. I decided to get SewTites a try. I absolutely LOVE this system. I can load a quilt back in under a minute now. I will never go back and I tell all my other quilter friend’s about them. This system is so easy to use I have gotten 5 quilts quilted in the past week! I’ve never gotten that many done so quickly before. Love it!
K
Perfect for longarm quilting
Doris P.
These SewTite Magnums are next level wonderful. Longarm loading is so much faster and fuss free with them. I wanted to share my apron hack because it keeps the parts easy to separate and handle. I just sewed channels in an apron and load the SewTites as pictured. Thanks for a marvelous product.
Janice S.
I bought one set of 20 SewTite Magnums at the Houston Quilt Fest in Nov. as a “trial”. Sewed them into my leader cloth on the top only (only bought enough for the top bar). After loading my quilt and realizing how strong the magnets were and they actually held as advertised, I HAD to have a second set for the bottom of my quilt making time required loading a quilt the least of the job. They are easy to sew in once you get them apart and there are numerous videos on YouTube. I liked that they come in a lidded tin box keeping them together when not in use.
Barbara M.
Love how easy to put quilt on my longarm
Using the sew tight magnets .
Glad you marketed the great
Product.
Highly recommend them to anyone using a longarm
Barbara
Janine S.
A bit of a learning curve but have used on my longarm for about 10 quilts. See the video and for best instructions.
Lucy G.
I do longarm quilting for other people. I have tried different ways for attaching the quilt to the frame and this is by far the best and the easiest way. It was an investment but well worth the cost. I highly recommend the sewtite magnums! My next purchase will be the sewtite cutting system!
Jana A.
Great product! Fast shipping. Makes it quick and easy to load quilts onto the Longarm frame. 10/10 recommend!
Janet L.
I'm using the Sewtite Magnums on my Cutie frame for quilting. So far, I'm experimenting, but think they will work wonderfully. Love that you can slide them to separate one part from the other, and love the strength of them.
Thank you!!
Carol R.
Loved using the Sewtites magnets on my long arm. When I saw a video using the magnets instead of pins, I had to try it. They are soooo much easier and less painful, and they never get bent like pins do. I also love the idea of using the small ones to hold paper pieces together. I plan to use it making my second 3D star. I look forward to other ideas you have for using these magnets. Thanks.
JILL S.
I'm looking forward to the new system for hanging quilts on the wall. I've already pre-ordered.
Thalia I.
Hi! I'm a Brick and Mortar Quilt Shop. I stock SewTite Magnums, and use them on my long arm machine.
I love how tight they hold my backing in place! They are an investment in your time and sanity, and worth every penny.
If you are on the fence, just take the plunge. They are a quality of life item in my opinion.
I can load a 120x120 quilt backing so swiftly! It's fabulous!!

Game changer for me!!!!! I have had
Arthritis in my hand and it flares up using the red snappers in the past. I switched to the sewtites and absolutely love them. It is so much easier now for me to load my quilts. My hand already feels better not having to press on the snappers. I was hesitant about spending the money but it is already well worth the investment.
Roger P.
Love them makes loading a quilt a snap!
Shirley W.
I bought the sew tites magnums to use on my longarm. I love them and I'm telling all my quilter friends about them.
Margaret M M.
I bought them to save time and effort from my clip ons.They worked really well but one end kept coming off. I finally put a pin to hold it and it worked. I do like thembut I need more time to give a real review
Cheryl E.
This Company is GREAT to deal with. The magnets are wonderful on my longarm machine. Made it so easy and time saving to use. Well worth the cost.
Rebecca
Fast shipping and they are a game changer
Patty B.
Exactly what I expected.
Debra A.
I thought they were fairly expensive.
Michelle P.
Arrived so quickly! They work great!
Emma E.
Quick and fast service. Strong and hold tightly to bars.
Mary S.
I love the Sew Tite magnums. I use them on my long arm and no longer stick myself repeatedly with pins. I can now load a quilt in minutes instead of a hour no matter the size. I highly recommend Sew Tite magnums. Mary S.
Joyce B.
I am using them more and more each day on projects in my sewing room. I make Lovey blankets and they are so handy to hold the fabric together without shifting. I also use them in my quilt projects. Do have a warning on the bigger Sewtites be careful they do pinch but after using them so much you learn.
Rebecca
The price is a bit too high but I love the magnets
Olivia H.
I tried cheaper knock-offs for six months but two different brands were both too thick as well as magnetic on both pieces so they kept sticking to the bars and made it difficult to roll the sandwich. I finally caved and tried enough to attach king size to the take-up bar.. HUGE DIFFERENCE in time savings as well as no bloody fingers. SssooooI caved again and bought another 20 sewtites for the bottom of the backing-“king size” . I have been using for over a month and LOVE THEM! I rotate quilts alot and these take me 20 minutes vs the 45 min to an hour to unpin, rotate, & repin. These are worth every penny!!!!!
Gail M.
Doesn’t work really well on my Little Foot frame with a big quilt. Haven’t tried the small quilt yet
Jan M.
I have been investigating options to attach my quilt to the frame for almost a year now. I didn’t even know about the magnets but a quilting friend had told me about them. She used the red snappers. I was also investing the zipper option. After all my research I decided to make the investment in the magnets and I’m SO glad I did. I sewed them into my leaders and have quilted two quilts since the installation. They are a big investment but I’m glad I invested in these instead of other options. You can find videos on YouTube on how to sew them into your leaders and attaching a quilt and the SewTite website has their own video and it is excellent. I highly recommend this option if you’re serious about your quilting.
Linda B.
I haven't really used them on a quilt yet but, they are strong and looking forward to.
Candy A.
The sewtites magnum save my back from pain with bending and my fingers from pin pricks when loading my quilts on my longarm!
Maria T.
My Sew Tites are a Christmas present. I am confident that they will exceed my expectations and I am looking forward to installing them in my long arm leaders.
Sharon H.
What more can be said that hasn't been said already...I LOVE THEM!!
At first I thought they were a little expensive, but the time they save when loading your quilt is AMAZING.
If you longarm quilt they are a "must" buy.
Denise W.
I was watch Becky from Power Tools with Thread when she was talking about the sew tites magnums for her longarm. She said it was a game changer and she wasn’t kidding! I then watched your video on installing them on the longarm. Easy peasy! I cannot believe the ease of mounting quilts on the frame now! I told a friend and she’s coming over to check it out! No more red snappers or pins for me! Thank you for this awesome product! Love them!
Harold M.
This is the first time to use Sew Tites and it is much easier to get a tighter backing loaded that the long plastic strips we were using. Easy to adjust backing tightness if there are any loose areas to prevent lumping when stitching the quilt sandwich together. They hold tight the fabric and since they are thinner go under the idler bar without resistance or hanging up on the bar. Magnets are super strong and manage the backing in a taught state allowing for smoother quilting experience. I encourage anyone to try Sew Ties over the other methods of attaching the quilt backing to the long arm. Great product.
Jenny K.
Used sew tite magnums for the first time and I LOVE them! I have spray basted and pinned many quilts over the years. It is time consuming and difficult to do. The sew tite magnums hold thick material with no problems at all! Worth every cent to be rid of the hassle of pinning and material adjustment mishaps. The time saved by using the sew tite magnums have literally cut my time for framing and quilting my quilts by about 2/3.
Loucendy B.
I used the SewTites Magnum on a zipper system on the local quilt stores long arm machine.
Rhonda L.
They are exactly what I wanted.
Karen H.
After researching best way to load a quilt on my longarm, my choice are the Sew Tite Magnums. Much faster and easier to load a built top. Love them.
Jeanne L.
Ask again after Christmas! My sew-tites are a Christmas present for me!! Thanks
Carol A.
I have not had time to put them into my longarm yet, but I have used them for my regular machine for holding things in place for the time being until I finish with what I am working on right now.
They are the greatest!
Karol B.
Adam Sew Fun demonstrated the simplicity of loading quilts using the Magnum Sew Tites. When the first box arrived, I knew I wanted the second one right away. Love the quick delivery and appreciated using Adam’s influencer discount. Great product. Performs as advertised.
Sandra
I have always been impressed with the SewTites products. I expect these to be very helpful in quilting

I have tried other methods of mounting tops on my longarm. The Sew Tites system is the best thing I have purchased for my quilting business since I bought my Gammill Statler in 2006. Invest in your business. Sew Tite will save you time and increase accuracy.
Cheryl E.
I am installing the Sew Tites this weekend. I have a new IQ guidance system and these Sew Tites will be great to increase my productivity by cutting down the installation time for my quilts and I won’t have pin holes in my fingers.
I am looking forward to getting them installed and load a quilt.
Kari O.
I placed the Magnum SewTites in my long arm leaders; I have a 14’ frame, so I purchased three packs of twenty and sewed the back into my leaders every six inches. I’ve found it easy & fast to load my quilt top and backing; these are strong magnets that hold my quilts well.
Judy J.
I love these things! After poking myself with pins and trying to fashion some diy red snappers I bit the bullet and bought the sew tite magnums for my long arm. Not only can I use them on that, I can also use them on my embroidery to hold down material or stabilizers on my magnetic hoop.
Kathy C.
Loved these magnets they are the perfect length for spacing & holding my backing to the longarm. Great purchase for those of us who keep getting stuck by pins. Service from sewtites was fantastic. I emailed them because i had problems applying a coupon code and they immediately responded & refunded me savings from the coupon code. Thanks so much!! That’s great customer relations!
Michelle P.
I bought my first set about a year ago and just recently bought a second set. The first set is used on the pick up bar of my longarm. I'll use the second set on the backing bar so the backing will be supported completely by Magnums. They are very secure and faster to load than pins. I float my tops so 2 sets is all I need
Margie P.
I love these long yellow Sew Tites. They are perfect for when I am doing edge to edge quilting. With my magnet frame. The Sew Tites hold my quilt securely and make it easy to move around the quilt
Adrean
As a longarmer these are a lifesaver for loading quilts…and no more pin pricked fingers!!
Karol B.
SewTite Magnum magnets have permanently replaced the red snapper system I used to load quilts onto my longarm quilting frame for the last 6 years. SewTites’ largest magnets are easy to use and super strong. Thank you for making quilt loading an easy, less time-consuming task. Definitely worth the money.
Laura T.
These are pretty pricey. I have been loading my quilts by baste stitching the top to the leader for years. These may be a great option if they were a a lot cheaper. $380 for my 14 foot table is way too much for me.
Teresa D.
Great product and super service from the staff.
Marie K.
What's not to like about these magnets? I have so far enough for 2 leaders but am asking for enough for the last leader for xmas. They always ask what I need so now I know. I have the blue HD ones for side clamping and yellow Magnums in the leaders. They speed up the "yucky" part of quilting and save your hands plus, you are not standing and bending over your machine so long. It's a win win! I highly recommend them and it's worth the investment.
Sharon L.
The magnetic tiles work great for lap or small wall hangings on my canvas of my 14 foot wide longarm table. I did not order enough to complete the entire width of the a large (queen or king) quilt because I think the tiles are hard to get attached to the edge of a wider quilt with more fabric. I sewed the back pieces into my canvas so I am going to take them out and go back to the plastic clip-on system that I was using before on the larger quilts. I have managed to quilt almost all of the smaller quilts that I had pending so the system works great for those. It is a good system, just not exactly what I need to the mostly large quilts that I quilt. Thanks
Martha C.
These things are awesome!! Wish I had looked into these when I first started quilting. They hold the fabric on my long arm perfectly and no more pinning!! What a great product!
Andrea S.
I bought these because they are long enough to use on my metal embroidery hoop, and THEY WORK GREAT!!!
