Hello All! The internet is a maze of links, some of which I followed this
evening--only to stumble upon some interesting stuff. Of course, I'm not sure
how I got there but took some notes in case anyone else wants to follow the
trail of bread crumbs! My starting point was

I was just informed by Galina Khemleva (Skaska Designs) that she is going to
have a booth at the lace convention in St Paul MN. (bells went off in my
head) is it really coming up so soon? Is there a webpage where I can get
more information on the Lace Convention? I live in MN so will want to be

Hello All! After returning from a quick trip to Wally-Mart where I was
browsing in the periodical section, I was going to post about the Victoria
magazine article on Irish lace--only to see that Jeri had beat me to it! Sharp
eyes, quick fingers in Maine!! It's not deep reading, but there are
Hi Katelyn,
My solutions to these problems have been super-thrifty. Although highly
nonstandard, I'm sure, they work for me.
I have used a small table intended to support a laptop computer as my
"cookie pillow stand." The table surface (17-1/2" wide x 15-3/4" deep) can
be adjusted between fla
Can Brian Lemin please contact me or someone send me his email? I have a bobbin
query I hope he can help with.

The tablemate is a wonderful table to travel with. But if you're
flying, be sure to get the small one. There is a larger one, but it
weighs more and may not fit in your suitcase. I've bought several of
them while they were on sale a various times, and have enough to lend to
other lacemakers

I have a pillow stand that I bought from Lacis many years ago, but rarely use
it.
I have found that a typing table is exactly the right height for a pillow
stand. The rolled up towel sounds like a good idea.
Another thing that works for me is to use a standard table (I have a very
large
I've been through a variety of stands through the years. It is most important
that the chair to table height fits yourself. Propping the pillow on something
and having it rest on your lap is one way to get the working surface at a
usable height. The shoulders should be relaxed, upper arms hangi
I have a sit-kneel chair with table from Lin & Nigel Mason and have used it
for at least 15 years, maybe more. I can't remember when I got it. It is
very comfortable and you can adjust the table to slope. The table has a
removable ledge at its front edge which holds the pillow firmly in place.
I have two pillow tables and one collapses much better than the other. For the
collapsable one, it's something like a snare drum stand, but made of wood. The
other stand is more like a table, round top that slants. Can send photos this
evening is needed.

Hello Everyone
Katelyn I use a stand when I`m sitting in an armchair. My
pillowstand stands at the side untill I use it. I can take my stand outside in

Hello Katelyn and everyone
There are some really nice purpose built lace tables out there, the
Tablemate folding table is popular too. I have space, and a room with good
light for lace etc. (there is lots of 'etc.'). I use a plain office table
where I can spread out all my lace gear. I find that a
Hello everyone,
I am wondering what everyone is using as a pillow stand for a cookie
pillow. Do you have a freestanding prop only used for your pillow, or do
you make all your lace with the pillow propped up on the kitchen table?
If you have a prop for use on a table, did you make it or buy it?
