A copy of this letter is going to Lacefairy, who may be able to tell if she took pictures of my pillow that fits in a travel case like the one described by Mark (below). My lace pillow that was made to fit one of these cases was made *after* the case was purchased, so it would fit properly. It has a roller, and a brass rack at the back which holds an upholstered bar piece on which finished lace can be wound. The rack can be disassembled so it fits inside closed case. There is a small white bag to put the rack pieces in. The lace pillow, piece on which lace is wound, and pin cushion. are Grape (purple) in color. Made by my friend Ilona, and quite lovely. I'd not put it in checked luggage on a plane. The case might be too tempting for someone with slippery fingers. It does not have a lock. Jeri Ames in Maine Lace and Embroidery Resource Center

It was almost a complete circle but had a flat bottom where the hinge was. They were about approximately 12 inches tall and rounded top where the handle was and they easily set down on the flat hinged part. My mom used to have one of these and I have seen them at tag sales or flea markets. Could be a solution to a travel bag for the D shaped pillows. ;) -- Mark, aka Tatman blog: http://tatmantats.wordpress.com/ email: [email protected] - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
