If you are working on a roller pillow and take pins from the back to put in
the work as you are doing it, the pins might only be in the work for a
couple of hours at most. After the lace is off the pillow - I have never
been able to see where I was working hard, and taking the pins out after a
short time, and where the work was been pinned to the pillow for several
weeks between times when I was working on the lace.
