I remember when a bag of Poly Fil would have a free wood turner in the bag. It was 12" long and had a rounded and flat pointed end. I haven't found any other like it. It's the one I reach for all the time.

One site recommended a pair of hemostats

I know what you mean, I got mine at Eleanor Burn's Quilt in a Day. Look on her website.
|
i found some years ago in hobby lobby is some kind of wood called point turner

You might also look under "Bone turner" as some of the early ones were made of bone.

I use the Purple Thang, it's good for more than one use, but you could also look for bone folders in the scrapbook/card making section. Most are made of bone, but there are ones that are wood/bamboo, too.

Elenore Burns has those on her site I am pretty sure. I watched her use one. It is called a point turner here is the link.

The closest tool of that description could be a "bone folder" used in paper folding projects..I have a "plastic" type one that I use only I used a Dremel tool to cut an "eye" in the wide end and use it to pull elastic thru casings in slacks etc. This way I can use it several ways in different projects.
