Stiletto & Turner Tools

Achieve precise, controlled sewing with Linda’s Stiletto and Turner Tools collection. These indispensable hand tools help you guide fabric under the presser foot, turn corners, poke out points, and handle tiny pieces — all without putting your fingers near the needle.

What is a stiletto used for in sewing and quilting?

A stiletto is a pointed tool used to guide fabric through the machine, hold seams flat near the needle, position tiny applique pieces, and keep seam intersections aligned during sewing — all while keeping your fingers safely away from the presser foot.

What is a turner tool used for?

A turner (or point turner) is used to push out corners and points on sewn pieces like quilt blocks, table runners, bags, and pillows after turning them right side out. It creates crisp, clean corners without poking through the fabric.

Do stilettos work better than a seam ripper for guiding fabric?

A stiletto gives you more control for guiding fabric, especially at intersections and when working with slippery or small pieces. A seam ripper tip can catch thread loops unintentionally. Many quilters keep both within reach.

Are stiletto and turner tools available in combination?

Yes! Some tools combine a stiletto point with a tapered turner end, giving you two functions in one convenient handle. Browse our collection for combo tools and individual options.
