I think the thimble needs to have the outer ring and fairly deep "dimples". I didn't see this thimble at Connecting Threads, but a Google search showed a number of sites selling it for about $8 plus shipping. And, of course, as a hand quilter you may already have a suitable thimble on hand. :-D
Thank you for the link to an awesome video! First, I need to get the right kind of thimble and then learn to actually USE it. Then I'll try my hand with the Aunt Becky.
