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.
Here's a site I found that looks like the one I have, but its brown. It have the stabilizer in it so your hand/wrist are stabilized. Hope this helps.

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.
