ABSTRACT:
A sewing thimble having an inner barrel, a blade segment and an outer shell. The molded inner shell is semi-rigid and has a projecting lug for positioning the cutting edge of the blade segment. The outer shell is resilient or slightly deformable and is molded around and encases the inner barrel. The outer shell has a laterally projecting and thickened bulb area which covers the inner barrel lug beneath the cutting edge of the blade segment. A flap cut is formed in the bulb area to provide a means so that a user may grip and pull a needle and thread by thumb pressure applied against the bulb area.
