I don't find the patterns, either, or the printable version of the page, just an index page. However, this is exactly the sort of pillow that I use for demos. Mine is an original, from the estate of one of the Great Lakes Lace Group members who was Puerto Rican. When I bought it, I had no clue what the little ridges at the top were for. They looked really odd. I wrapped a pattern around the roller and began working, and the minute I needed to move a bobbin out of the way, it *instantly* became clear what the notches were for. I didn't even think about it until AFTER the bobbin was hung up, and I said "OH!". The little box is really useful. Spare bobbins, extra thread, scissors, my wallet (if I'm not wearing pockets) ... all go in there. Makes it much easier to carry, and when it sits on my lap it's high enough to work on without a separate table. If you really need them, I could make tracings off mine for you. -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Martha Krieg [EMAIL PROTECTED] in Michigan -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Martha Krieg [EMAIL PROTECTED] in Michigan To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
