You don't need to worry too much about the ends. There may be a little bunching at the curve but you could probably do something about that once you get the general tube shape down.

It's all curvy though and would probably require measurements.... and some knowledge of how to turn measurements into a 3d object. But it's not off the agenda. I thought of that!

This is how I keep myself balanced when sleeping on my side/stomach sometimes. And hey, you've got a sewing machine you could try making a cover for the snoogle.

It's one of these: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Leachco-Inc-Snoogle-Original/dp/B0000635WI/" rel="nofollow">Snoogle</a>. I like it a lot although I wish I had a cover for it. But it can only do so much. My problem isn't my spine, it's that I fall over onto my belly. I don't balance very well on my side. I sit with my legs bent for most of the day, so nighttime is when I stretch them out. That is, I don't like to curl up in bed and so I can't balance. Previous to that I picked up a very bulky full-body pillow from Costco, but Kevin absconded with it (and seemed to get along better with it than I did so I let him). I also toss and turn a LOT while falling asleep. This makes fully utilizing body pillows awkward. One reason I picked up the Snoogle is because it curves to almost be a both-sides body pillow. Not quite enough though. Our (queen-sized) bed really isn't big enough for me to fling a body pillow around with me each time I switch sides. So I make do with other pillows and rolled up blankets and so forth, but I still feel like I'm crowding Kevin, which makes it harder to fall asleep.

I have a wedge-shaped one that I found really helpful for either supporting my belly while lying on my side or for putting between my knees while lying on my side so my spine was aligned more comfortably. They also make full-body pillows that might be helpful. I picked mine up for $5 at a discount store. Online, you might try places like overstock.com. *hugs*
