Ok I wear gloves to quilt but I buy cheap garden gloves so I can cut the finger tips off to the first knuckle. I also find a flat surface is a must. No drag on the quilt. How are you basting the quilt for quilting? I use spray baste 505 is my favorite. Also the speed of the movement of the quilt will affect the out come. Also practice on a scrap sandwich to get the movements right. here are a few videos.
