SewTites replace those pins by clamping fabric layers with strong magnets, so you can align seams, attach pockets, or stabilise bulky edges without distorting the work or spending extra time wrestling with clips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do SewTites hold thick materials without sewing holes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach SewTites Original is a snap-on magnetic fastener sized to distribute pressure across a small area rather than a single sharp point.
