Wow, I loved Elizabeth's idea for her fifty cent fabric weights on her blog Oh, Fransson. Such a simple and handy project. So while I was fiddling around with Liberty scraps for another project I decided to make some of these myself.
It was the perfect use for all those pesky foreign coins Will brings home from his business travels. They were cluttering up his desk in the study and I didn't know what to do with them. Now, problem solved.
And, well, if we ever have need for a French franc or some Italian lire we know where to look. These are a much prettier way to hold my fabric on the table than my sticky tape dispenser. Great idea Elizabeth.








What a clever idea. Such a good use of fabric.
Are you & Will coming to T reunion?? It's this Friday!!
