It's more likely you're allergic to the coating on the fabric, not the fabric itself. I'm allergic to a coating as well. I'm fortunate that it's a rarely used coating. I can go into fabric stores, and I was even a manager at Jo-Ann for a time. But when that coating does present itself somewhere it causes sneezing, my throat swells, my voice goes hoarse and it's awful! I have no clue what the coating is but it sure gets my attention when it's nearby.
