I have that one and it didn't work well for me. However, I don't hand quilt, my hand sewing consists of binding and applique. I push the needle with the side of my finger, and the thimble is too slippery, the needle just slips right off it.

I'm like you, I've tried just about every single thimble out there on the market. My favorites so far have been the leather ones. I gave up on the black thimbles because my needle ends up poking through the seam, but I do like the Clover leather thimble. And I found one in Houston last week, it's a metal half-thimble, gonna give it a try.

I'm glad you found a thimble that works for you!
