Fashion Pattern Weights, 4 pc

These little dress-form weights are so much cuter than the boring metal ones I used to use. They hold down even slippery fabric on my cutting table without sliding around.

These little dress forms are so cute sitting on my cutting table, and they actually hold the fabric down firmly without slipping when I'm tracing a tricky pattern piece. Cutting out a whole garment went way faster since I didn't have to keep repositioning pins, and they feel solid in the hand.

I’d been cutting fabric with plain heavy objects for years, and these dress form weights finally make the process feel less clumsy. They’re light enough to move around quickly, though I wish they had a bit more heft for slippery knits. Still, they hold most cotton and quilting fabric just fine.
