If a person had access to milkweed fluff, that is supposed to be a really
excellent insulator, better than goose down. I wonder how many field fulls it
would take to have enough to insulate a house? On a more realistic front, I'm
considering trying to make a comforter using milkweed fluff in place of down.
Has anyone on the list tried this?
