Gwyn what 2 fingers do you use your thimbles on? Maybe you could make your own by using a finger splint available at most any pharmacy section. Then just wrap it with some tape. Then next time you need to use it just apply it with new tape? If you want me to look for one for you just let me know. I will be glad to do that and mail it to you. crafty_linda_b
