How do I use LickityGrip?

Why do I need LickityGrip?

While LickityGRIP was initially developed for quilt piecing, it has almost universal applications.

If you grasp, grip, shuffle, hold, pick up, position or place...

...fabric, filaments, beads, threads, wires, needles, glass, paper, plastic, trims, sequins, or jewels…

...and want a product so pure it’s edible… LickityGRIP will work for you!

LickityGRIP gives added grip for better control while...

    • ...Sewing or Piecing
      “I get a better shuffle without licking my finger!”  LickityGRIP helps you shuffle fabrics quickly and accurately for perfect alignment.  Quickly get that one thread exposed on the bottom layer for precision piecing!
    • ...Machine Quilting
      “No more gloves!”  LickityGRIP allows you to feel direct contact with the quilt.  Feel the fabric and get the grip you need to machine quilt without bulky gloves or awkward apparatuses.
    • ...Hand Quilting, Hand Appliqué, Needle Work
      “Wow!  It really makes a difference pulling the needle through!”  LickityGRIP gives you a ‘grippier’ grip on the needle with a more relaxed hand.  Because needles are so thin, most people grasp them very tightly to get a good hold.  This can cause unnecessary stress to the fingers, thumb and wrist.  LickityGRIP actually allows you to hold the needle more securely with less tension, less hand fatigue!  You will be able to pull the needle through more readily.  You will also have added control handling the fabric or canvas as you work.
    • ...Rotary Cutting
      “I feel much less tension when I am cutting!”  LickityGRIP allows you to safely control the ruler with less pressure!  Have better contact with the ruler with less force.
    • ...Beading
      “LickityGRIP is a beader’s blessing!”  Whether picking up, positioning, weaving, shuffling, stringing or threading beads, LickityGRIP gives added control and allows you to grasp beads and filaments or threads more firmly with less stain and tension to the hand and wrist.
    • ...Scrapbooking, Cropping, Rubber Stamping
      “LickityGRIP is a must in every cropper’s kit!”  LickityGRIP helps you effortlessly grasp, shuffle or place tiny embellishment, die cuts, trims, papers and photos.  LickityGRIP gives you the added control to make each page or card perfect!
    • ...Wire Work
      “I can’t believe the difference Lickity GRIP makes manipulating these thin wires!”  LickityGRIP’s added control will help you attain smoother and more even wire work.
    • ...Model Making
      “Those teeny tiny little pieces suddenly felt so much bigger in my fingers!”  LickityGRIP gives model makers more control while fitting small parts together.
    • ...Origami
      “LickityGRIP afforded me incredible accuracy!”  LickityGRIP gives paper folders extra control while manipulating papers in this most exacting of art forms.
