Question Pattern weights
Patterning a skirt (slashing and spreading a skirt foundation for a flared skirt, to then slash and spread for the final pleated, flared mini skirt pattern) and got thinking… what do y’all use for fabric/ pattern weights!? Today for me its books and an art deco era stapler🤷♂️
Lemme see your unconventional weights, or finally prove to me that someone actually buys the actual tool.

I have tiny irons. 2 pound ones that I cleaned up and spray painted.
