Default Cotton seeds in batting stained quilt

Just wanted to see if anyone else has had this happen...i made a hand embroidered, hand quilted Dresden pillow several months ago and used natural cotton batting. Apparently it had some pieces of seed stuck in the batting that are now staining my piece! I have tried several stain removers, but the stains will not come out. I'm bummed because I spent a lot of hours on this piece and was going to sell it until I discovered the stains...i may be able to add a few embroidered flowers over the spots. I've tried Carbona, Grandma's secret, and 2 or 3 other stain removers, but nothing has worked. I like cotton batting, but will only be buying white from now on and checking for seed pieces...
