A tool for sewing (7)

I believe the answer is:

thimble

(Other definitions for thimble that I've seen before include "Sewing tool" , "Sewer's protection" , "digital screen" , "one player conceals in game" , "Cap to protect the finger while sewing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
