klutz glove
Just wondering if what those of you who own a Klutz glove think about it.
Does it seem bulky and get in the way? Thanks, Maria in Wisconsin |

Sounds awful to me (for quilting). You can also get chain mail gloves from meat and fish packing suppliers. I just think keeping your fingers away from the edge before you swoosh that cutter down the line would do it. If you are struggling to cut fabric that hard, then you need to change something else in your technique. Elena, having come close by slicing fingernails off.

I bought one for my DD#1 (she's 11 - oops, 12 today!) to avoid accidents
while she is gaining experience rotary cutting. I tried it on, and found the fingers too tight around, but they were way long in the finger. I wouldn't use one for me, but as a teaching/safety tool for beginners, I like the idea. -- Wendy http://griffinsflight.com/Quilting/quilt1.htm de-fang email address to reply "Joe and Maria" wrote in message ...

You can get a guard to go on your rotary rulers. It is clear
and sticks on. I think Walmart has them. I have a long ruler I have one on. It makes the ruler a bit bulkier than without the guard but it is safer.

I've had one on my ruler for years and love it. Makes me feel better.
