I wanted to comment on the use of the pool noodle. It works for a one-time or short term project. It does not hold up over a long time.
I bought a travel pillow with a small roller. After making about 4 yards of narrow edging on it, the pins didn't hold very well. I discovered a valley under my pattern. Just that limited use of the central one inch had disintegrated the foam. When I took the roller apart to see what was in it, I discovered the pool noodle. It was replaced with strips of woolen fabric wrapped around the central dowel, then the fancy cover was put back on it. It's been holding up very well now, over the time of several different projects.
