<< Does anyone know what Simon Tousteou <sp> stuffs his pillows with? If he is going to convention this year I hope someone will let him know that many of us are not arriving for the first three days. >> Sorry Janet....I'm reading messages out of order and just saw your earlier one above. As mentioned in my other message, I understand Simon Toustou's pillows are sawdust filled. As for catching up with him at convention, if you or anyone else are seriously interested in a pillow from him, I would advise calling him by phone and having him reserve one for you. (You could also confirm if he is coming and which days he plans to be there....he has been known to go home before the last day I believe.) I can tell you his pillows go fast. If you call ahead, you can tell him the size, style, velvet color, and wood choice you prefer and have a better chance of getting exactly what you want. (The wood choice has to do with the pillows which have drawers built into the bottom which curve with the shape of the pillow....really nice for tools, etc.) Of course, he also makes lovely tables in several styles and in various woods, too....as well as bobbins, tools, etc. I got mine by calling ahead before an Ithaca lace day a few years ago and they were there waiting for me. Also, thank goodness we had driven and could carry it all back in the car. If flying, bring an empty suitcase or two! <g> No connection....just a satisfied customer, Vicki in Maryland - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
