Garden gloves for quilting
Cruising through the forum this afternoon I saw a comment from someone that used grippy garden gloves for quilting. I had gloves on my shopping list, but after seeing that comment I went out to the shed, opened a package of gloves I bought from Costco this past spring (but never used) and gave it a try. It works great! I can't find that post now - so just a general 'thank you' shout out - for this and all the other wonderful ideas shared on QB!

I've used the $3 gardening gloves for years, but this year was fortunate to win a pair of the machingers (sp?) at retreat..... they are alot better & I have enjoyed them alot... BUT once they wear out I will probably go back to my old stretchy garden gloves with little rubber dots.

I have Machingers, I have Fons and Porter's, and I have surgical gloves as well as the gardening gloves. Guess what I use the most? The gardening gloves! When I figured out that I liked them better I went back to Home Depot and got 3 more pair. I also cut the fingertips off the surgical gloves and use them on my fingers to help grip and pull the needle through when I'm sewing binding or hand quilting.
