What could I stuff a bean bag chair with?

I want to make a bean bag chair but don't want it stuffed with styrofoam pellets or whatever it is that you usually find in them. Would a wool batting filling or cotton or I've seen a corn based batting keep a good shape for a bean bag chair or would it go flat over time do you think?

Yup, it's the walmart outer that I'm going to buy. The outer was $16 and then one bag of poly pellets was another $16. The bag said no CFC's but I'd still like to use something more natural like wool etc.

Any idea how many lbs you would need to fill one of these? I like the buckwheat hull idea and I found a Cdn place that sells them for $5 /lb which sounds good but I'm not sure how many lbs of it I would need.
