    I got a pair of driving gloves at Menards and they are great. I did cut the tip off the index finger so I can pick things up easier.

    A free motion class I took a few years ago had rubber dishwashing gloves on its class supply list, and suggested you to buy a size smaller then what you typically would wear. I grabbed mine at a local $ store. When we got to the class, the instructor had us cut the fingers off the gloves, shuffle them around until we had a snug "finger tip" on our index, middle and ring finger. Works great, been using them ever since, no sweaty hands either.

    I love Fons & Porter's gloves. I have tried the garden gloves, for me they are worthless. Machingers are ok, but the F&P works the best for me. I cut the fingertips out so I can get to my needle & such! Love love love these gloves!
