Yep the Grabaroos are super super super! I know the lady who helped to design these and she also quilts. They are the best ladies....so try them!

I use Machinagers (sp). Helps with moving the quilt easily while free motion quilting.

I found gardening gloves at the end of the season at the Christmas Tree Shop. 2 pair for a dollar. Works great for me. They have those little rubber bumps/dots on them, are cloth and let my hands breathe. Very helpful controlling the fabric while doing free motion.

I'm new and have never used gloves . . . yet.
I just took a class and purchased some "Non Slip Finger" by Clover.
It looks like a glue stick and it is easy to apply to your fingers and/or palms. I liked this when I used it in my class.

Mine are some I gave 1.00 for years ago, they are garden gloves with little rubber nubs on them. I wouldn't quilt without them, they make moving the quilt so much easier.

I have never found any type of gloves to fit my hands (short and squaty, just like the rest of me) so I have never tried using any. But if I could find a pair small enough to fit a chubby child size hand it would be great.

I suggest you try the Grabaroos. You could get small and they stretch to fit your fingers. I am sure they would fit.
