- Stiletto: A multifunctional marvel designed to guide fabric with precision at the sewing machine, ensuring your fingers remain at a safe distance from the needle. Its versatile applications include fabric guidance, corner poking, stuffing manipulation, seam allowance management, and precise fabric layer alignment. Additionally, it doubles as a vinyl project weeding tool, adding to its utility and value.
- Blunted Ball Tip: This indispensable tool provides stability when handling template pieces or small fabric components at the iron, eliminating the risk of burns or mishaps. Paired with the turning tube, it facilitates seamless fabric turning and aids in the application of straight-sided appliques with ease.
