Made some donut fabric weights for my future SIL, then decided to make myself a large set too.

I’ve been wondering for a while if there was a better way to keep pattern pieces in place instead of pins, and there is!

I made myself a set of 18 fabric weights. There are 2 sizes here; small = 6cm per side, large = 10cm per side. They are filled with rice and are hefty enough to cope with light and medium weight fabrics.
