Disks can do this. I presume you know how to use Disks to format the stick and create a new FAT 32 partition, since that's pretty straightforward. To make the partition bootable, highlight the partition, select Edit Partition from the little gear menu at the bottom, then check Bootable. > This is needed for fedora liveusb-creator GUI to create a bootable > live USB stick. Or you could use Disks to create the bootable live USB stick without messing with any of this: just open the gear menu and click Restore Disk Image. You can also right click on the file in Nautilus and select Open With -> Disk Image Writer, which takes you to the same place (and the only thing you have to do is select the stick from the dropdown menu; couldn't be easier).
