I have seen large mats done both on a large pillow and by using just a segment (slightly over 1 repeat) on a smaller pillow. Sometimes the pricking itself might determine how one did it.
Using a pricking segment would not be much different than 'moving up' on yardage pieces. Well, maybe a few more pins/holes to line up.

Among the lace pieces she brought for display, were some beautiful tape lace mats including a circular one about 2 ft (80 cm) in diameter and some long rectangular mats. Does anyone know what type of pillow these are made on, and how they are made? Are they constantly taken off the pillow and repinned, and if so, is the pricking one large one or several small ones like a jigsaw puzzle? Pictures of the mats are included on the website http://www.artofil.be/uk/index.php<http://www.artofil.be/uk/index.php> Go to "Gallery" and her pictures of her visit to Australia.
