Hello everyone,
I am wondering what everyone is using as a pillow stand for a cookie

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

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

I have some questions regarding pillow stands. Not the individual kind
but
the shelf style ones that will hold multiple pillows so that they are

one above the other but not on top of each other. Hopefully that's clear.
