Clay and Spiders, I have a wonderful travel pillow, which has been all over the place with me, over the last 15 years or so, and although the outside looks a little battered, and I have replaced the square and the roller part of the pillow, I wouldn't be without it, and am seriously considering investing in another one. It looks like an over-large brick, on its end, and opens out so that the actual apron bit (where the bobbins actually sit whilst work is in progress) is larger than an 18" pillow would be. Consequently, although I do very often use travel bobbins with it, they aren't a necessity, as there is space to use quite a few ordinary-sized Midlands (I always use Midlands..) bobbins. It is made of quite sturdy hardboard, and sits on four little rubber 'feet' - it folds together ingeniously, and is portable and easy to use, so I really love mine!
I think SMP still sell it - and if anyone gets the chance to purchase it, then go ahead - you won't regret it. And you'll be able to make more lace, as you won't have take up time to fiddle with adapting a pillow.
