Default Pincushion ... Fillings!

I have decided to make a few pincushions for gifts.
The outside will be assorted test quilt blocks (approx 2" to 4")
I'll lightly quilt them before making them into the pincushion.

As for the fillings ... what is best to use??

I know crushed walnut shells have been used, but I have no clue why.
Similarly, I remember some mentioning wool as a filling. Again, why?
I'm guessing wool batting trimmings would be OK for this?
What else, do you use?

In other words, please share the pros and cons of assorted fillings.

Please? and Thanks!
