Yes it, is. The size of bobbins have to be related with the threads used. But, maybe it makes sense for you if the pillow is in a degree of inclination in order that the bobbins hung, so the weight of them helps to tension. For example, when the lace is worked completely horizontal as it is made in centre Europe the bobbins are litlle size and threads very fine. So, there is not so important to tension, but it is only necessary to acommodate the threads. Hope this helps
