Hi All, My first lace pillow was a horseshoe one with two blocks for moving up.
The first one I made was 23 1/2" square, and I found it helpful to be a quilter as well - I covered the foam with wool wadding before covering it. It is two sided and I made two long blocks for the sides and blocks for the middle to move up. I followed Pat Milne's advice and made spares as well, for the original pillow as well. My friend's husband made a base with sides for the pillow and the reason for all that effort was Eeva-Liisa's Crucifixion which I made for my Dad's 80th birthday. He has moved in with one of my brothers and his family and the framed picture hangs in my lounge room. I have also made an edge for Church use from Marie-Claire Downton's book - it is about 60" long but does not have a final resting place yet. The project currently on that pillow in another of Eeva-Liisa's pictures, the Guardian Angel, Mary Carey Campbelltown, NSW, Australia - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
