This is a Fidget Quilt made to donate to an Alzheimer's care facility. The designs are all from Adorable Applique. I also did the quilting on my embroidery machine, I digitized the quilting myself.

85867Very CUTE, I made a few last year. It was a project our Quilt guild did. We all made some. Can also add big buttons, Velcro, zippers, they would fit over their laps so as to not get caught in wheel chairs. Hope these suggestions help. Of course can add just about anything - but they do have to go thru the washing. Have fun

Thank you. I used many soft, silky fabrics and ribbons. I am told that the patients like to stroke the fabrics and it can bring them calmness. Blessings to you and your sister-in-law. Hugs.

Thank you for the extra information and tips. We have notice that my SIL will finger pleat a piece of fabric edge, so I wanted to be sure to have a long piece along one edge for her to pleat and straighten out.. You are a Blessing to many
