Mardili Hard Wood Tailors Clapper for Steam Iron to Set a steam

This clapper really works to flatten my quilt block seams and my blocks are noticeably more accurate. This is a good value and well made. One note, after trying this version, I ordered a two pack from another Amazon seller for a slightly better price and they were also slightly wider, which I like. Both are good quality, well sanded and fit well in the hand. Both get the job done. I reviewed the other clappers as well if you are interested and might prefer two slightly wider tools. You won’t go wrong with either choice.

This not only looks great but it feels wonderful in your hands. We never knew we needed a clapper until we read about them and now we can’t do without one. It makes for nice, crisp seams.

Very useful sewing tool to keep pressed seams flat! It's wonderful!

Perfect. Dense hard wood that holds a crisp seam.

If you want flat seams this is what you need! A little steam and a wool mat really does the trick!

I started quilting and quickly learned how helpful a tailors clapper is for squshing those seams super flat! The wood holds heat while absorbing moisture, which "sets" the crease. Worth it.

Helps to flatten bulky seams. Use the iron to heat the seam and then hold the clapper on the seam to flatten it out.

I actually came back to my purchase history because I wanted to send someone the link to this that is purchased almost 2 years ago. I didn't recall the price I'd paid but I was sure it was expensive because this clapper is such good quality. I was absolutely shocked to see that I had only paid $15!! This thing is absolutely wonderful! I can't believe that out of all the ones I'd researched, that this high quality piece of wood was one of the inexpensive ones!Get it if you're wondering. And for those wondering... It's you can use a clapper without steam. It probably gives a better press with it but not enough to "have" to use steam. My opinion only.

Good

This is my first clapper. I tested this immediately when it arrived at night. And definitely better than without. Good buy.

Merci fait très bien

Just as per description.

I am a beginner quilter and can’t wait to use this item. Looks like it’s a handy item to have for flattening seams.
