    I have a man's tube sock filled with rice. It wraps nicely around your neck.

    My answer would be yes. I have fibromyalgia and it does provide me with relief. And yes, I use just plain dry rice (real, not instant)

    I mist mine with a squirt bottle, they seem to last longer. You could make one square horse shoe, if that makes sence. mine kinda lays across on my upper shoulder and down my front?

    So funny. I told joanieu today, I needed a full body one like the body pillows. Won't fit in the microwave or freezer though. Too bad.

    I read your quote about the butterfly fabric and I have some. You won't even have to kill for it. I purchased a huge box of quilting fabric at an estate sale a year ago and there was a couple of yards of the bfly fabric in there. You are more than welcome to it as it is not my taste. PM me with your name and address and I'll be happy to send it to you. I love to see fabric being used by those who love it.

    I forgot to say, earlier, that I made the ones for my neighbor out of dry rice & fleece. They work well in the microwave.

    I did the same thing last week. I work at a computer and spend a lot of time with my elbow beside the keyboard - uncomfortable. I took 2 fabrics from a charm pack and filled with rice. Not only is it more comfortable for my elbow, when I'm not typing, I hold it and reposition the rice inside different ways. It is just comforting and soft. I will be making more for sure. It is the perfect size for my desk.
