When I started, I used my ring finger. I switched to my middle finger when my hand began to hurt.

Actually, I can use either my index finger, middle finger, or thumb. Maybe Alex Anderson is the one that inspired my index finger. I used to watch her show religiously, long before I ever picked up a needle. Simply Quilts was really an inspiration. Thanks Janet, you're right. Comfort probably is the most important thing.
