Create Your Own Fabric Weights
Cutting fabric is often the most time-consuming aspect of any sewing endeavor. You find yourself dealing with numerous pins and cautiously preventing delicate paper patterns from being whisked away by even the slightest draft. An effective remedy to this is using fabric weights, a popular solution.
However, if you don’t have these at hand, you can fashion your own makeshift weights using bolts. Bolts provide ample weight to secure your patterns without burning a hole in your pocket, unlike expensive official weights.
