Welcome from Georgia, 2 wheel woman. Glad to have you with us.

There are lots of alternatives to traditional thimbles on the market these days. Keep trying until you find one that works for you. I wear a thimble pad and love it!!

I'm a hand quilter and it is a very enjoyable pastime and portable. I've worn out thimbles, you get your own technique going and no one does it exactly the same. One thing I was told when I first started it to rock the needle and it makes a difference. My mother in law was a quilter and she could get nine stitches on a needle. I'm lucky to get over five. but I enjoy the process.
The good work you do on the gift quilts shouldn't be overlooked. I know you make the day of the recipients. It's always nice to know someone is thinking about you and the quilts remind them of that daily. Good Work
