A pricier table is availale from Simon Toustou in Canada.  He does  
not have a website, and I have misplaced his email address, but  
someone else may have that if you're interested.  His tables can be  
taken down and made portable, but are best used as a table at home  
only.  They're fairly heavy, and even in their travel mode, they  
are cumbersome.  BUT, the one I have is made of walnut, and it is,  
hands down, my favorite!!  It is big enough for any pillow you can  
imagine - maybe even the big one from Gabriel!!


I have Simon's table and absolutely adore it, the nicest thing being  
that the top can be turned as you're making the lace.  But I never  
thought of it as being portable.  Maybe that's because I fly  
everywhere.  His email is:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Wow!  Thank you for all of these suggestions!  I will be going out to run a few 
errands soon but will definitely look into all these possibilities when I 
return.  
   
  I asked about a stand with a drawer because I did have one a long, long time 
ago.  A friend of a friend (an elderly woman) passed away  my friend purchased 
this stand.  She then decided she really didn't need it  either gave it or 
sold it to me.  I enjoyed using it very much ... the little drawer was right 
below where the pillow sits  it was very handy for keeping tools in that you 
didn't use too often.  However, I had a bout with temporary insanity several 
years ago  sold all my lace equipment (with the exception of very few things) 
including that stand.  How sad that we must suffer for our past mistakes   : 
)   It was a floor stand, not a table stand.  
   
  Anyway, I am looking forward to checking out these suggestions!  I will let 
you know what I come up with.  
   
  Blessings,
  Shirlee

Welcome, Alex, from Downunder.
I can assure you your dictionary is a Must Have here in Australia, and my
copy is very well used!! - and a Godsend, too!
Thank you for writing it.

I have also seen a photo of a beautiful mat (I hesitate to call it that!)
that
I believe you made in a plaited lace - with 4 Roman (?) heads on it in
medallions.  An absolutely gorgeous piece of lace.
So we know that you are a very experienced lacemaker, too.

I am sure 1000 copies of your New Dictionary would sell like the proverbial
Hot Cakes.

Regards from Liz in Melbourne, Oz.
