Dritz 633 Button Gauge & Point Turner Combination Sewing Tool
Achieve professional finishing details with the Dritz 633 Button Gauge & Point Turner. This versatile combination tool is designed to simplify two essential sewing tasks: creating durable button thread shanks and neatly turning points on collars, lapels, cuffs, pockets, and belts.
The pointed end gently pushes out corners for crisp, sharp edges, while the opposite end functions as a button gauge that slips under the button during sewing to create the proper thread shank. With gauges for lightweight, medium-weight, and heavier fabrics, this handy tool helps deliver polished results for garments and sewing projects of all kinds.
