I have one and I like the various purpose its for but i find that its a lil flimsy when im pushing out corners.. otherwise its a pretty creative notion..

One of the ladies on here sent me one of those!!! It's one of my favorite quilting tools! I use it for quilts that i do the pillowcase method. I have also used it in other things! That thang is just awesome!!! I hope you're enjoying yours!

Oh, I love my Purple Thang! I use it as a stiletto, to push out the corners or smooth a turned curve, hook the loop when bringing up the bobbin thread & use the flat end to "finger press" a short seam. I lives underneath the extension table on my machine along with my thread snip scissors, seam ripper and seam gauge (yes, I still use one of those things on occasion!)

/when I bought mine they said it was for use in hand appliique. When using a glue stick you use
the purple thang instead of your finger, etc. I've misplaced mine; did use it some but seemed my
fingers did just as well without it.
