Default Applique turn-under tool

I've been watching Connie Sue of Apple Blossom Quilts on Youtube, learning how to do back-basted applique. I noticed she uses an orangewood cuticle stick to turn under her applique edges. I've always used either a toothpick or just my fingers. I got an orangewood stick yesterday, tried it, and am delighted with the results. This is sooo easy! The beveled end works beautifully for catching and turning under the edges. I did have some difficulty finding the sticks, but located a package of them at Walmart.
