After using ground walnut shells and sand, I am back to fiberfill because it is easier to use. Other stuffings probably benefit pins and needles a bit more by applying some degree of sharpening friction, but not enough to mitigate the trouble you have trying to get them into the pin cushion. MSQC has a new video on chicken pin cushions and it looks really easy and fun. froggyintexas
