I make pin cushys also, and use crushed walnut shell, or plain ole cheap rice.
AlSO: I am at a big loss.... I would like to know who had my name for the NOVEMBER Sp swap. If you sent me a box it DID NOT arrive. PLEASE send me your name .I am wondering if it went somewhere out there. Have checked my profile messages and there is no record of a PM sent to Lori OF RECEIVING.. DID I GOOF somewhere??? So if you had my name JAN RUTHERFORD please inform me. THANKS.
