Dear Julia,

Wool scraps that can be felted (such as yarn, cuttings) make great
stuffing. But for the labor involved, I opted to purchase my
accessories. If sawdust is used, you would be best off making a base
of canvas, then covering that base with another one of wool on one side
and canvas on the other. The double cover assures that there will be
no leaks, and the outer layer is smooth enough for good pressing.

Teri, yes I believe the pattern calls for two layers: a muslin
underneath and then cotton outer layer. Wool is a neat idea, but I'm
hoping sawdust will be smoother. It's hard to iron over bumps!

Now that I think about it, I'd be interested in information about these
patterns! Who makes it?

I think it's Butterick, but I'll confirm the company and pattern number
when I get home tonight. The pattern is called something like "Sewing
Room Accessories".
