I should have said conversation, not conversion piece. Sorry

Just google thimble cages and different styles of jewelry for this purpose will come up.

Tommy Lane used to make beautiful Thimble cages. They can be found at Quilt Shows or maybe find her web site. I have one I purchased about 25 years ago from her, when she was in Boone, NC.

that is beautiful!!

That reminds me that I have one I purchased at the Houston show years ago. I must search for it - yours looks so gorgeous.

How would you know if a thimble is for a left handed person? Is this a stupid question?

Smallwondersjewelry.com has reasonably priced thimble cages. He also makes thimbles and a stitchers tool that I use every day and Love.

Just to clarify my posting. Being left-handed has nothing to do with how the thimble works. The reason I mentioned it was it is the only other thing I got from my grandmother. I got her thimble and the trait of being left-handed - that's it.

Very cool! What a treasure to have.
