Well Suz, I was not lucky. I stitched thru my finger, glove and all. What was worse was haiving to think enough to raise the needle from my finger! That was no fun. I've done it twice! You'd think I'd learn but I didn't.

Which is why I use Grip-N-Stitch..

Sorry. What is Grip-N-Stitch? Just wondering.

Grip-n-stitch are two disks that grip your fabric as you free motion quilt. No gloves needed. Hands are free. There are Youtube videos on them also.
