Someone on here sent me a pair of fons and Porter gloves. I love them. I bought a pair at the dollar tree with little dots of rubber on the palms and they work great also. Big difference in price. When mine get dirty I put them on and wash them with hand soap just like washing my hands. Take them off and rinse well and lay them out to dry. I use warm water. I can't FM quilt without them. The fabric doesn't move smooth enough...my hands slip. Maybe try a pair of the dollar store garden gloves first before investing in a name brand. I bought the thin cotton ones. They fit snug and don't make my hands sweat.
