Hi - while I would agree with this description for a flat, bolster, block or
cookie pillow, it is very difficult to put cover cloths front to back on the
pillow when you are using a roller pillow.
When using a roller pillow one of the best methods is to make the pattern
into a loop, larger than the diameter of the roller and then as you unpin
from the back and re-pin at the front, the pins go back into a different
place in the roller each time. If you are making a long length and you have
the pricking exactly the same size as the roller the holes will gradually
get looser as the pins go into the same place over and over. This is
particularly noticeable with a foam pillow.
