Hi Debra, I've flown with my lace pillow, usually an 18" or 20" without a problem and have checked it but with a fragile sticker just using my regular cloth pillow bag. You can usually get an 18" or smaller pillow in the overhead compartment of many of the airplanes except for the crop dusters but the crew sometimes will let you put it up front behind the cockpit where the pilots put their coats. I use a few extra cover cloths to make sure that my work and bobbins are secure and I make a pocket out of bubble wrap that fits the pillow with an allowance for the pins and leave a tab long enough to be able to fold over and secure it with tape. With all of the additional security measure at airports these days, I've been checking my pillow more often but even when I've had it with me, I haven't had a problem. I just make sure that my scissors, crotchet hooks and tools are packed in my regular suitcase.
