The only other suggestion I have for you - as a fellow hand quilter - is to try the Thimblelady plastic thimbles. They are open ended and fairly cone shaped. The dimples are quite deep. And the plastic ones are VERY reasonable. It takes a bit to get used to pushing with the pad of your finger vs. the tip but I find it far more comfortable. I tried the plastic ones first to see how I liked the fit and method. I've since graduated to the stainless steel version which, I think, is still pretty reasonable. Their fitting instructions are right on the money. I've worn holes in the dimples of both the plastic and the s/s (believe it or not). But I do find them very easy to use, comfortable to wear and a good bang for the buck. JMO.
