Does anyone have this??? Well, I ordered three of them, was hoping they would keep my poor fingers from being stabbed time after time, pfffttt, didn't work. They are one size fits all and very narrow in size. I couldn't get it to work for me, somehow the little nub thingy on the top of it gets in the way. Seems to me, it would be a whole lot better if that weren't there, although, maybe it's me and I'm just not using it the way it's intended. What do you all think????

I know what you mean. I have tried many different "thimble's" and I just have a terrible time. I have started to use the Quick Grips you buy to put on the back of your rulers. I put it on my finger right where the needle would stick you. You can take it off and reuse it a few times and then use a new one. This works the best for me.

Had never heard of it http://www.momsmagicthimble.com/ I guess it works a little bit like the Aunt Becky's and for sure they take awhile to get used to.

EDIT: When you go to this site there is a place to browse the list of videos. Look for the hand quilting # 48 or 49? It is a great tutorial.
