I could never find a straight answer on the matter, most people just use batting for convenience but I have more sawdust than I do batting! I'll have to try it out. :)Ladyfairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17402600337611206195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486103715531710138.post-59945083580954929782014-11-06T03:30:53.390-08:002014-11-06T03:30:53.390-08:00You are so d*mn creative, I just love the pumpkin ...You are so d*mn creative, I just love the pumpkin pincushion and the lovely coffin box!

A lot of pincushion crafters tend to use crushed walnut shells because it functions much more efficiently for that purpose... but it is the more expensive choice. <br /><br />Batting is really good if this doesn't matter to you, because an emery strawberry (or bat in my case) does this also.Madame Mari Mortemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14092879436628518422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3486103715531710138.post-91367868347317773352014-11-05T09:27:25.829-08:002014-11-05T09:27:25.829-08:00It's cute!

I was going to stuff it with sawdust but I hesitated because I thought it would dull the pins. Do you think it would work, or is it better to just use batting??Ladyfairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17402600337611206195noreply@blogger.com
