Pincushion filling??

I heard recently that people with nut allergies should not be around pincushions with walnut shell filling. Has anyone else heard of this issue or ???

Corky I really don't know. But most of us use polyester fiberfill to stuff our pincushions since they are mostly for collecting and display. If you want to join and you have a nut allergy, specify that in your information and I will make sure that you will not get one with crushed walnut shells just in case.

Gee Corky, I never heard of that and wouldn't have made the association. Probably something someone should put in the allergy section of the questionnaire. (Requesting her partner not use walnut shell.)

I have a grand daughter who is allergic to nuts. She has to ingest them to have a reaction. I'm not a doctor so it may be different for others.????
