Same here or a knitting needle, the really long ones.

It's called a point turner and it's usually made of bamboo or ceramic. I got a couple at Jo-Ann's. good luck

You really don't want to use a stiletto or something too sharp because it could poke right through your corner point. I use something that is totally free-- when you purchase a gallon of milk that comes in a plastic container quite often the handle hold is not totally cut out. That little piece of plastic is a total gem that works perfectly and doesn't cost anything.

Thanks so much for your help. I knew I could count on The Board. It's terrible when the mind starts to go!! I could describe that I needed the tool to push out the points on corners, but do you think I could think of the simple term "Point Turner?" I need a new brain. Thanks again for the help.

There is the point turner,
and then there is the purple thangy that pushes, pulls etc

I use the tip of my hemostat.

Sounds to me like the other end of a hera marker. I use it to push corners out.

Is this what you are talking about?
It is a pointer turner.
I use it when I make Dresden plates.

It sounds like something you would use to "finger press" the fabric. I've seen them in Clotilda's catalog.
