I made some tools for Ceramics in Textiles this evening while I waited for the Great Toaster ™ to cool. It is so FaNtAsTiC having all of these great areas in one building!
I thought about putting Emory powder in one part to keep my needles in… I only have like four needles. Actually five but I use two at a time so one is super lonely.
Pea pebbles would probably work perfect. I actually used one of your pattern weights as inspiration for the size. Thought maybe they had beans or something similar in them.
You know, beans might work… if we wanted to make a triple area cross project, planting the sprouting beans later. LOL
