I'm feeling crabby but in a good way. Check out the progress that a shop in Florida is making on several of Barbara Bergsten's crab frame weights.

I've been told that Edie and Ginger created the first frog shaped frame weights. These little critters are decorated with various design on their backs, then made up into stuffed animals that have weights inside so you can put one on the corner of your canvas when it is on stretcher bars, let the bottom of the canvas hang over a table edge, and stitch with two hands. Great for travel and for those who love working at a table but don't use a frame or one of those hardware store clamps!
