My index finger is painful after hand Quilting for a couple of hours.?
I have begun quilting and Patchwork after a break of a few years.
I had forgotten that I always use my index finger as well as the third finger of my right hand to push the needle through the three layers of cloth.
I wear a thimble on the third finger and also the index finger but somehow it slips off. Is there a way to protect the index finger as it’s a real problem and a painful one?
I cannot stand to use a thimble and have found these to work great for me – http://www.hancockfabrics.com/Self-Adhesive-Reusable-Thimble-It-Finger-Pads—64-Pkg-Needles_stcVVproductId47582054VVcatId539555VVviewprod.htm
You should be able to find this with Sewing or quilting notions.
