My Current Favorite Sewing Notion/Tool:
The OESD Perfect Pressing and Point Turning Tool
(Expert Point & Press Tool)

by Lisa Orens

I think the title and the name say it all—this simple tool makes turning an item right
side out—and pushing out corners ALMOST effortless, without the risk of cutting
stitches or breaking the seams open.  

Constructed of aluminum, it is strong and the blunt ends in two different sizes allow you
to push out corners easily and give a very crisp, professional result.  The ‘grip’ in the
center of the Tool gives a non-slip surface for a solid grip and for you to push out corners
or ‘press’ seams to give a professional finish to your projects. 

Recently I made 14 zipper pouches as gifts for friends. This tool made short work of pushing out the corners and smoothing the seams. My bags were
finished in a jiffy and looked beautiful.  I’ve also used it on Kimberbell projects including mini-quilts and mug rugs.  My results look MUCH more professional. 
I highly recommend this as a useful addition to your toolbox.
