I watched this video today. The quilter is using a tool to grab the needle that is just what I need. Does anyone know what it is or where to find it?

Sorry, I have dialup so I can't watch youtube. So may not answer your question correctly. However, when I was hand quilting many years ago I would cut those long thin balloons off and slip them on my fingers to help me grab the needle.

I use a little round of rubber, about the size of a silver dollar, cut from a larger round rubber jar opening device. Many businesses give them out as advertizment. You just fold it in half over the needle and it allows you to grip it tightly. I handquilt with a group of ladies at our senior center who are mostly in their late 80's or 90's. They use them all of the time.
