I use a old fashioned soup spoon with a round bowl rather than oval one so it gives me a longer slightly flatter ridge to catch the needle. I find it easier to quilt towards me and push the spoon away, but getting better going right to left. Going back to Jean Brown's video, she uses a secretary's finger guard on the index finger to help grab the needle and pull it through. I find that too cumbersome - I cut a finger off an old pair of washing up gloves and use it on my ring finger.
