Yes, I do have one and I do like it. It isn't perfect for me though. What I like about it....quilting with the pad of my finger rather than the tip, that is the most comfortable way for me. It is made to be able to use if you have fingernails but it doesn't work for me if I have even a tiny bit of length on my nail. My nails are wide and the shape of the cutout on the thimble is very narrow and oval shaped. I have since found another thimble that is like the Roxanne one, using the pad of the finger, but it's opening is better for me, and the price is WAY cheaper. Clover makes it, it is a bronze colored metal, open sided, adjustable for around $11.00. I need at least 2 thimbles because my fingers swell during the summer and shrink back in the cold. At $50.00 a piece, buying 2 is tough. Hope it works well for you.
