    I'm not computer literate so I don't know how to put web links here on the QB but go to www.momsmagicthimble.com. I ordered 3 of these so I can try them out. It's sorta with idea of Aunt Beckys tool but in thimble form. Looks pretty interesting.

    Cool! Beats pricking your finger and building up a callus.

    I bought one of those many years ago to try for hand quilting. Definitely not "magic" for me!

    Doesn't look like it would be comfortable for me..then again didn't look at the price to see if I'm willing to try something new.

    I thought it was about $4.95, can't remember exactly, I thought a little expensive for what looks like a plastic thimble. But, I'll see when it gets here. I ordered 3 of them.

    I got one, and its far too small for me to use, but I think the idea is a reasonable one if it fitted you, and yes, it is plastic

    Hmmm, I have pretty thick fingers. I'm a robust kinda gal, Hey, it is what it is, Right?....It may not fit me either. If not, I'll give them to the ladies I took an applique class with. There's got to be some kind of gadget out there, I'll just have to keep looking.
