I just ordered the aunt beckys finger protector, and got lap hoop off ebay. I have made a giant dahlia center and was wondering what i was gonna do to quilt it. Ive done a little hand quilting so when i saw jeans video on you tube i said thats it thats the thing i wanna learn on and do for dahlia. Ive been practicing and doing great, recommend this method to everyone and quilting goes faster and more even. now i m gonna order thimble.........lol then im really set.
