    My new gloves!

    Sometimes we find things in the most unexpected places. I was shopping with my husband at the sporting goods store, when I spotted these gloves. They are actually for cleaning fish! They are very lightweight and comfortable and have super gripping power for machine quilting! Best of all, they were only $2.99! Wish I had bought a spare! I have been using the now for the last two weeks and they are wonderful!

    They look very interesting! I need a different kind, I think, with more gripping power.

    These have great gripping power. My other gloves still wanted to slip around. I have seen garden gloves similar to these.

    I use the cheapest gardening gloves, with the rubber nubs I can get. They actually last a long time.

    You might look at Harbor freight. They have some gloves that look kind of like yours.

    Well aren't you clever! That is brilliant and so much more affordable than the trade's gloves. Thanks for sharing!
