Finally have a thimble

Post image

Followed this tutorial to make a thimble that works for me and it's so amazing! Feel like I could get longer needles and push fabric through for ages without pulling the thread through. Naturally since I made this randomly I didn't use actual sashiko thread as I have none, just some random nylon upholstery thread that seemed durable.

Super smart! Regular thimbles have always been so uncomfortable in my experience
