The other thing I just picked up after seeing people on here talk about it over and over is the gardening gloves withthe rubber dots on them. I figured for a couple bucks I'd try them with my quilting and if I didn't like em, into the shed they'd go for gardening! I've tried them once so far and I like them, a lot! I'll see once I've done a little more, but I like the control they seem to have over the fabric. Might be worth a shot.
