Depends on the type of bolster you want. You *should*, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can, buy a bolster in the UK since that was what the old lacemakers in Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire used with their bucks thumper and midland bobbins. But they were very large and supported on a 'horse'. Lori's lacefairy pages have postcards of lacemakers all over the world using different pillows and bobbins. Photo 8 seems to show a bolster on a horse with midland bobbins, and photo 11 one with bucks thumpers. http://lace.lacefairy.com/LaceArt/LacemakerPostcards1/album.htm Jean in Poole - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
