    I agree with Jan - MVQ.

    I intend to try this very soon. I have three quilts that are almost ready to be pinned.

    I tried these, didn't work that great for me. I don't think I'm coordinated enough. I love my Machingers though. There is another post about the new grips here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...s-t261657.html

    I use glycerin on my hands instead of the gloves or anything else. Just a few drops will do, and you can buy it at the grocery store on the medicine isle. This is what was recommended when I worked at a sewing factory years ago.

    I saw on one of the quilting shows they actually make something like this, I foget what they are called. I'm sure your bright idea is a whole lot cheaper and a lot easier to find the items to make it. Good job, thanks for sharing.

    What a great idea! I use Fons & Porter gloves but they also get hot in the summer especially. I'll be giving this a try. Thank you for the info
