I worked with Pete from Snowgoose and designed a thing that
we called a 'Bobbi Pillow' about 10 years ago. He cuts it for me
(or who ever) by taking one of his regular cookie pillows and cutting
off the back. Then cutting out a circle from the center. The same
kind of idea as Janice did with the blocks but it is a larger area.
The one circle that I have is 10" the other one is 12" So the circle
is large enough that you don't have to deal with blocks and the
line in between them and the circles can be popped out and switched.
If you are inclined to have photos just let me know and I will email them
directly. I've also done one that was as above with a split base that
could be folded in half for smaller packing.
Good luck with all your ideas!

Do not meddle
in the affairs of dragons,
for you are crunchy,
