Emory and toe are the usual 1800's filling. The emory is really hard to
find. The toe is the flax that is thrown away from sheathing. Go to a
period farm for it.

Subject: [h-cost] OT - Pin Cushion
I'm wanting to make a decorative pin cushion for a Christmas gift., but
not sure what to fill it with. Does anyone have any suggestions besides
sand or fiberfill?
