ABSTRACT:
A new sewing and quilting finger tip protective device comprises a thin metal or hard plastic disc formed into a portion of a spherical shell. A double-sided adhesive pad is removably adhered to the concave surface of the shell whereby upon application of the concave surface and pad to a finger tip, the hard shell protects against needle penetration of the skin. The shell is sized to effectively cover that portion of the finger tip most likely to be pricked by a needle when quilting. Because the shell's shape effectively conforms to the finger tip portion to be protected, the shell acts as a hard skin without substantially increasing the size of user's finger tip.
