I'm in my 50s and have been sewing since i was four years old.

I use a tailor's thimble for everything but hand quilting. For hand quilting, I use a Thimble Lady cone finger thimble and the Thimble Lady thumb thimble.
I use the Thimble Lady cone finger thimble, too... didn't know about the thumb thimble!? Will be going to her website right now!!! I can see I'll need this!!
