They are wonderful and yes, go to PetsMart or Petco and they sell a big bag for about what you pay for a small bag at the quilt shop. My guild started using them years ago - here in the south sans can get moisture in it -not good. Batting is way to,lightweight for a decent pincushion. The crushed walnut shells are the perfect filler - provide weight and don’t absorb moisture. I thunk the bag I looked at was 10 lbs. - ag too big for what I needed at thst time -should have bought it anyway.����
