Comment on Product Review: Clover Protect and Grip Thimble by Janet O.

I just bought one of these Clover thimbles today. I wore it around for a while and it is sooo comfortable. I hope it is the answer to my problem. My fingers don’t taper at the ends and I can’t find a thimble large enough that isn’t too large. This thimble actually fits. I only wear a thimble to hand quilt and I always push with the tip, so I am hoping it will work for me. I hadn’t considered the issue of catching the thread. We’ll see if it happens to me.

“albeit not enough to run downstairs and retrieve my Roxanne thimble.”
That made me laugh out loud. Aren’t we funny sometimes? I get so annoyed with something, but rarely actully do something about it.
One of these days, I will have to try out a Roxanne. They are intriguing!

I love my Roxanne thimble, too! It is just perfect for hand quilting. But, I use a Clover jelly thimble for other hand work as the rolled rim at the bottom of the Roxanne digs into my index finger when I paper piece, etc.

By the way, those Jelly thimbles are a lot tougher than they appear!

Good review. That would be really annoying to have the thread catch! I love my Roxanne thimble too!

Thanks for sharing. I am just starting the hand quilting and have yet to use a thimble… I really should try out a few that I have in my sewing room. Love the pic of your baby in the jumpy. Mine used to love being in there, but they’ve both outgrown it and are now running around the house.
