a clever idea -- a way to keep bobbins wound in pairs from becoming hopelessly tangled while you set up a piece.

I also made a sawdust pillow many years ago, and it was just about as messy as this one. I was coughing for a week afterward. And I had to take it apart and repack it with more sawdust, since it had settled for 24 hours after I first made it. It worked as a pillow, but is very heavy, far to heavy to take to workshops and meetings. These guys in the video really did a good job of beating that sawdust. But I don't understand why they mixed in those little round balls.

Three hours ago, I had  posted about the biggest bobbin lace pillow in the world on my FB page and have seen interests  in it already.   I was truly amazed myself at how they went about making it.  I have made two pillows myself, but no where near as large as this one. 7:05 Low cost Bobbins Jenny Brandis 11K views 6:18 Beginning Shuttl...

Watching some guys constructing "the biggest bobbin lace pillow in the world". Hilarious. Notice all the sawdust on the floor, the lamp shade.

For mechanical geniuses -- how to build your own turning lathe, for bobbin making.

Yes, that is like the one I tried.  I did not wind it correctly, for starters, and found it a bit bulky.  Perhaps if I had stuck with it a bit more I might have managed it better, but  ....!!!  : 

I really enjoyed the tatting class at IOLI, and came home with a Jumbo tatting shuttle, and some sewing needles that take thick thread, that I have never seen - or heard of before!
