My absolute favorite sewing wax is bear's nose wax. After you make your bear and embroider its nose, you run the little block of hard wax (it comes it neutral, black, or brown) over the embroidery until it's completely filled in, then polish it. You get a hard wax nose that will last for years and years. Sadly it's useless for weird colored noses.
