Have any of you tried Glycerin for free motion quilting. You can find it in the drug dept. or pharmacy. Just a tiny dab on your fingertips. I didn't believe it until I tried it. It makes your hands "tacky", not "sticky", it works well enough you don't have to wear the gloves and it's also good for your skin. I bought a small jar and it was under 5 dollars, the way it's looking, I think it will last me for how much I get to quilt, for a couple of years! It bothers me less to have that on my fingertips than to have gloves on.
