When I have to do enough that it hurts, yup I drag my thimble out. It belonged to my mother. But for little mending jobs I'm too lazy.

Nope, can't stand the things!
Most likely, I'm not coordinated enough to use one.

No I never use one. I don't like the things. I find them very awkward and I can't "feel" the needle.
