Meet your new bodkin bestie - Clover's Clip 'n Glide Bodkin! This bodkin is truly top-notch! It bends and glides effortlessly through casings while pulling cord and elastic with a mighty grip.
Never loose cording or elastic inside casing again! This bodkin clamps down and won't let go! Simply lift up the white lever, and insert the end of the cording into the open mouth. Close the lever and the mouth bites down with a firm hold, allowing you to pull through casing with no worries.
The end of the bodkin has a smooth point and can glide easily through casings 3/4" wide and up.
It's longer length and flexibility make it extra easy to work with.
This bodkin works fabulous with cording, elastic, ribbon, and more! You'll never struggle with threading through casing again!
Inspiration
The Clip 'n Glide Bodkin worked beautifully to thread cording through the customized 2 Tulips Project Pouch we whipped up! We chose to use blues and oranges, which complement each other beautifully as they sit across from one another on the color wheel. Andover Fabrics has come out with a collection called Indigo Cheddar that celebrates this timeless color combo. These lovely, warm yellow-orange prints are meant to pair perfectly with blues and indigos.
We even made an Indigo Cheddar 2 Tulips Kit + Pattern for you!
NOTE: For the exterior of the pouch, piece the Night Rainbow fabric (top) and Indigo Cheddar fabric (bottom) together with a 1/4" seam allowance.
Adding cording in Dark Aqua expanded the complimentary color scheme to a split complementary scheme. Split complementary color schemes start with 2 complementary colors but branch off on one side of the color wheel to include the colors on either side of one compliment, for example, orange paired with blue-indigo and blue-green. A split complementary color scheme is pleasing to the eye and offers more variety than a simple two-color complementary color scheme.
