That Purple Thang

That Purple Thang by Lynn Graves

Funny Name, brilliant little piece of equipment

This multi-purpose tool is designed to be used to thread elastic or cording through, turning points, flattening seams - just to name a few.

A sewing tool for every quilter/crafter/seamstress as it pushes, pokes, pulls, p-fudges, p-turns, p-stuffs.

What you can use the That Purple Thang For :

• As a fifth finger, when you need to keep your seam allowance perfect, this will guide your fabric through, with-out placing your fingers in harms way
• Removing papers when foundation paper piecing
• Finger pressing seams, without damaging fabric or fingers
• The square end if a perfect 1/4" allowing you to keep check on your seam allowances easily
• It will help stuff narrow items like tails on toys
• It will help turn out corners very easily
• Easily remove a pin that has got a little too close to the sewing machine needle
• The slot in the That Purple Thang can be threaded with elastic or ribbon for easy insertion into casings or eyelets
• Use the slot to run a ribbon through so it is always hanging around your neck when needed
