For circular edgings and designs which re worked in all directions I
have a 24"/60 cm pillow, but it is too big to comfortably work at the
back of. For yardage with a lot of bobbins or large scale torchon with
teh big continental bobbins I made a wide roller pillow. The 30"/75cm
apron was carved from sheets of polystyrene using a kitchen knife and
the roller is a roll of wall insulation foam, so 20"/50cm wide.
Awkward for carrying around, but OK to work at.

This is one reason to use a pillow with moveable blocks. You're able
to start the piece in a comfortable place, and only move it up as you
work. My large pillow is rectangular, because I reasoned that the
space at the "back" was wasted... I just needed the space on the
sides. This has been a good configuration for me. You may want to
try it sometime.
