Have a very hard time finding thimbles to fit for handquilting - so far, the Clover open end adjustable has worked fairly well but am looking at the Thimblelady plastic one. Has anyone used it and did you like it? Also, am intrigued by the long needle she uses as I tend to bend everything I use or it pops out of my hand. Maybe I just need to practice more :-} I machine quilt a lot but find hand quilting to be extremely relaxing when watching tv so would like to do a lot more. Have watched the short video on the stitch technique that Thimblelady uses and believe I can figure it out if I have the right needle. Any Thimblelady technique users out there?
