Hi Katelyn, My solutions to these problems have been super-thrifty. Although highly nonstandard, I'm sure, they work for me.
I have used a small table intended to support a laptop computer as my "cookie pillow stand." The table surface (17-1/2" wide x 15-3/4" deep) can be adjusted between flat or tilted, and the height is adjustable. There is a "lip" across the front of the table surface that helps to keep the pillow from slipping off--and I topped my table with a layer of rubberized shelf-lining, which does a good job of keeping the pillow on the table (thankfully, no accidents so far). I caught a sale at the beginning of the university's term on the laptop stand and paid only $15 at WalMart (current price at the link below is $19): http://www.walmart.com/ip/Laptop-Podium-Black/11062628 I sometimes use a "pregnancy pillow" to rest between my knees and the bottom of the cookie pillow when I want to sit in my reclining chair and make lace. A link to the pregnancy pillow (base: 10-1/2" wide x 11" deep; height at back: 3-1/2"), which I bought at Amazon for $10, is here: http://www.amazon.com/DEX-Products-Pregnancy-Pillow-PP-01/dp/B000056JC1/ref= sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331671515&sr=8-1 I am very much a beginning lacemaker, so it is possible that I will decide to "upgrade" at some point in the future. But these items seem fine to me now (perhaps a case of "ignorance is bliss?") Barbara - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
