Hi, just found this message board, Can any one please help me select a good thimble. I have bought that many that are either too tight too small ect. I am very new to quilting and would appreciate all the help i can get. Regards M.

Hi and welcome from Michigan-not too happy with the thimbles I've used either!

I use a leather one. Everyone has a different choice. Keep trying until you find the perfect fit:) Welcome to the board:)

Hi and Welcome from England. I was lucky to find a very old silver one that fit me fine. It is lovely to use and I would be devastated to lose it.

Hope you find your thimble soon.

Welcome from Arkansas! I have an expensive thimble and a cheap one and use neither - just can't get used to one:)
