Do you use a stiletto?

I use an orange stick, and have since I was in grade school. That was NOT last weeek. A quilt guild was handing out flat at both end sticks at a show last spring and other than being long, I believe I like them better.

Mine sits right in front of the machine along with my nippers and use it all the time. Great for easing in a little fullness without a pucker. I have a nice study metal one my kids gave me for mother's day one year. Maybe its the memories of my kids that make it special, I don't know, but I know I wouldn't be without one.

I'm so fearful... 1) of cutting myself with rotary cutter and 2) of with hitting my finger with the machine needle in motion! A paper cut almost sends me to the trauma ward, I can only imagine what an injury from a moving sewing machine needle would do to me. :0)
Add me to the list of Purple Thangs. I buy a dozen each year during Quilt week when they are ridiculously low sale priced at our little quilt shop. Then I give them as 'surprise' little thangs in gifts and snail mails to friends who sew or quilt. I also have a quill and chopstick near the machine all get used from one time to another.
