Arthritis Gloves?
#12
I have arthritis in my middle joints on my fingers and found it hard to find gloves that went that far down the finger. I finally found some and they are wonderful!!! Here's the link:

I have mild arthritis in my hands and also needed something to help me push a quilt around for quilting and even long seams. On a whim I put on my Atlas gardening gloves! What a difference! I'd seen "therapeutic" gloves for over $35 and these are under $10. They have a elastic woven back so you don't get sweaty hands and the wrists are tight and long which really helps the wrists and hands. Try them!
Dandy solution!

I did hand hemming last night & both my hands are stiff & achy today. I had tests for carpal tunnel 12 yrs ago & that dr wanted to send me for surgery, but I'm not giving in until it's absolutely necessary.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you, but it was hotter than h*** here yesterday and everything was turned off. Air conditioners aren't installed yet and the computer is in the hottest room in the house.
