Maybe these will work for you?

I was recently taking a machine quilting class and the teacher introduced grabAroos. They're gloves that have little bumps on the fingers to grab fabric and guide it. Well they were only like $8 so I decided to try them. I have a difficult time with my hands due to rheumatoid arthritis, and other nerve damage issues so I don't have much feeling in the tips either.
ANYWAY...this little guys work great. I can work a little longer because my hands stay warm, have some support without being bulky and I can guide the fabric easily w/o a lot of fatique. They're made out a material that works with the swelling or shrinkage of my hands on any given day w/o a problem.
Pretty happy with my investment...wasn't too sure. And...they're bright purple so they make me happy :) Just thought I'd share.

I have some safety gloves with none slip rubber fingers works well for me and helps the arthritis too. I won't do anything without them even on the big table saw I use my gloves when cutting out the chipboard for hubby
