My granddaughter wanted to make 10 fidget quilts for the Memory Care unit where her Great Aunt is a resident. This was her service project for her Confirmation Class at Church. We just wanted to thank you for this Wonderful
Luv, luv your video…good instructions and so many ideas, very inspiring, i will make one for my 97 yrs old sister..❤
I live in nursing home and make fidget aprons for men and women. Everyone is different and it keeps my mind creative too.
I use old blue jeans
I am so excited to find this effective method of building the quilts. This really serves my own ADD approach to crafting and for maximizing the creative flow.
Your fidget quilt is better more fun to make and for them to use then the other video from a sewing man.🌹
This is exactly what I have been looking for, an easy to make quick fiddle quilt, thank you for sharing, love watching your videos but must have missed this, can't wait to get started , my sister needs just this, going to rifle through my scraps of fabric and trimmings, some of which I am hoping she will recognise, it is not dementia but mrsa, some symptoms are very similar. again thank you .
Thank you so much for making this tutorial. My 12yo daughter has autism and she's constantly fidgeting with our throw pillows. She opens and closes the zippers non-stop. I was so inspired as you showed all the different blocks. I can't wait to try this and customize the blocks with fidgets she'll enjoy!
I've now made three of these quilts using your tutorial. Thank you so, so much for posting this.
I do like to donate. This is a very easy and attainable project. 👍👍👍
Oh my goodness! I love every tutorial I've ever watched of yours and this one is no exception. I have a coworker with a family friend that has Dementia and the coworker doesn't sew (not even a button). Just yesterday, she asked if I could make one for her friend and I searched for a tutorial because I'd never made one. I found several but none as wonderful as yours. You make this look sew very easy and I can't wait to get started on hers. I've been sewing for over 52 yrs and have a lot of 'scrap trim' that I've saved without a reason, but I just couldn't get rid of it. Now I know what it's meant for. I love your very useful ideas and suggestions with every video and I recommend you to all my sewing sisters. You have the very best teaching methods and I thank you sew much for all you do.
Thank you very much that is very kind. I'm very happy that you have found a use for all of that brick-a-brack And I'm sure your coworker will love it. Thank you for taking the time to watch and have a sewtacular day
I came across this and have spoken to a couple of ladies at church about it. We have several members who have parents with dementia or Alzheimer’s. We are going to make some to give to patients. Your directions are easy to follow! Thank you for sharing!
Your education background makes this such a gift on many levels. Thank you!!
Great idea, the sensory quilts. I can see blind people loving them too. For me though, Im using your technique to make an embellished quilt (something I have wanted to do for ages).
Great idea!
Tutorial on Fidget quilts. They were so easy to make, and they turned out so well. We posted pictures on my FB page. They will be a blessing for those using them as well as those on staff. Thank you!!
I just finished a sensory quilt for my Dad, he has Alzheimer's. Your method is so much easier. Thank you Laura! I'm making another one using your tutorial! Love it!!
I have wanted to make one of these for a while now... Your great video has inspired me! There is a nursing home down the road, and I think a number of the residents would enjoy this!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I had never heard of Fidget Quilts or Blankets before today, and then I found your tutorial!
My mother has Alzheimer's and I spend one week out of every month going up to Canada to help my dad with her care.
She watches me knit and always says she would like to find something similar to do --- now I understand why!
She doesn't remember how to knit or sew anymore, but this would be the perfect tool to keep her hands busy! Thank you again!
If you know how to crochet yourself you could make her a crochet „fidget spinner“! Just so she can have the unique texture again. They are relatively easy to make (if you change color after the first row) and are worked in single crochet. „Worry worms“ are also easy to make and great for fiddling.
This is great but I have only buttons, snaps, and zippers. Thanks to the corona virus I can’t go to the fabric store!
I will do the best I can, Mom really needs one of these. You have given me some great ideas, thank you Laura! ♥️SewVeryEasy♥️
Great! It has given me a few ideas for the sensory lap Quilts I make for dementia patients. Thank you.
Laura, I love these ideas and will incorporate them into my next "fidget" quilt. Thank you for all your kind ideas!
Excellent job incorporating texture. Love your ideas. Thank you Laura
Thank you Laura - just what I'm looking for to make a fidget quilt for a friend 🧵🪡😍❤
Perfect timing!!! As a volunteer for my local Downs Syndrome Center, I was recently asked if I could make a sensory quilt for the children. Thank you so much for the wonderful ideas Laura
Thank you, Laura. I’ve been wanting to make one for my sister-in-law. I really like your instructions.
Beautiful! when my niece was little. She used to ware out tags on stuff animals. So I made a quilt with all kinds of tags. She would have love this too!
Another great tutorial! Thanks again, you always break projects down into achievable steps. Now, I'm off to my favourite store for zips, buttons, lace.....
Charming - absolutely Lovely, Laura; and I cannot wait to try your tape dashing technique!
Thank you so much for this!! I had agreed to make these for the patients at the VA Hospital. I need ideas and you gave me plenty of outstanding ones and what a grand idea to use all the things from my years of stash left from projects. Great idea!!

Love the fidget quilts. Nice texture pieces in some of the squares.
Love your ideas, especially how you connect blocks. Thanks!!
Thank you so much for your tutorial! Thankfully, I came across it just as I'm beginning my journey into fidget quilts! Such an easy way to make them and I can work on lots of "small" project blocks before starting in on the quilt and mix and match. I will be combining your way with your other video on the self binding blanket for an even easier project!
P.S. I am so envious of your hair!! Beautiful!
Wish I made one of these quilts for my mother. She would have loved it.
What a cool idea and it uses all those little things one collects over the years...and boy do I have a lot! Thank you once again. 8-)
Laura, What a Great Idea! Thank you for sharing!
I plan to make one for my sister's husband. He has Alzheimer's. Maybe one for my MIL as well, who also has it.
Thanks Laura what a good idea some people make then for the residents as in nursing homes.
This is what I was looking for!!! This is so cool!!! Thank you so much Laura!!!
what a wonderful idea. Until I saw your video Laura, I hadn't even thought about a fidget quilt for people with dementia....wish I had known while my mum was still with us xx
Yes!! I love it! I had made one, last year for my BFF's son, because he has ADD/ADHD and he loves it. This is so cool.
This is such a neat idea! I could imagine making several to take to nursing homes.

Brilliant thank you so much, I can’t believe just how much I’ve learnt from you in this tutorial.
Thanks so much for this tutorial as I would love to start making these ! You put in a wealth of info on things to use on these. I love how well you explain the process in all your videos !! Bless you and have a great day..
Beautiful project...one of the nicest...thanks for sharing
Terrific idea! I make these in a book form for Mai Well here in Australia. These are called Sensory Books. Thank you for your idea.
Love these quilts. Made one for the grandson. He loves it!
I just made something similar for my new (first!) granddaughter! Can't wait until she's old enough to play on it!
Yes always remember for the elderly dementia people don’t give them anything you wouldn’t give to a toddler. They are “unlearning” and reverting back to children as they progress. Don’t treat them like children just make them as safe.
Another AWESOME IDEA THANK YOU FOR SHARING LOVE LOVE
Love it.... Thank you for many many useful projects...
Great idea! I have just been asked by one of our local organisations that supports foster kids in care, if I can make fidget quilts for kids with anxiety issues and I'm going to follow your ideas. Thanks so much for sharing. Greetings from Aotearoa New Zealand!
You always have such great ideas and easy techniques. Thank you
Super! Great illustration and fun ideas. Jeepers, I don't think I've ever thrown any leftovers of trims away, so I have gobs of odds & ends for a project(s) ... I'd better get busy, huh?
Thank you Laura for such a wonderful video.
Thanks for those great ideas!
I wish I had known about these when my dad was ill... great tutorial- thank you!

Очень красиво!
Olá, adoro seus vídeos, aí Também tem essas plantas, jibóia?! no vaso atrás de vc! é, ela está em todos os lugares RS RS, bjs, amei o vídeo de hoje
Awesome
I like the adult version of a sensory blanket however, I was wondering with such a variety of materials,how would you launder it once it gets dirty? Love your assembly & creative texture choices!
Yes, but be sure everything you add can be put in the wash. If you are not sure,wash it first:)
Cute
Thanks😊
Thank you for this tutorial , i like this one better than any i have seen , I have made all of my blocks and sashing pieces, I'am having a little trouble keeping them in place as I sew them down can you please give me a little help. Thanks you Susan
zig zag the squares together first :)
Nice ideas! May I ask where did you get your pressing mat ? Thank you!
here you go www.steadybetty.com/products/the-steady-betty-12-x-12
Do these wash well in the machine or better to hand wash?
Hi, Laura. I love your videos. I see that you have a “Magic Pressing Matt” (wool). Do you believe that it’s worth purchasing? Perhaps you could do a video on its benefits. 😊
I do have a video coming out soon...Just a hint...Yes, I love it:)
😊😊😊
I’m wondering where you purchase all your Fairfield products from?
I really like your videos and but I cannot find the Quilter Select Fusible Web that is 1 inch. I'd also like to know the cost.
It is only available at Quilt shops, You can use any fusible fabric tape :)
Hi Laura, So sorry I hit the thumbs down by mistake...this quilt is a lovely idea. Thankyou Gail
Hey Gail! No worries. I think if you hit the thumbs down a second time, it will turn off.
What is the thing hanging from your yardstick behind your right shoulder? Just curious 😀
Lisa R, That "thing" is a hem marker. The container holds powdered chalk and has a slim horizontal opening on the side of the lid. It is connected by a tube to a hollow squeeze ball. The horizontal opening is positioned at the desired length of the hem while being worn by oneself or the person being fitted. It is placed directly against the fabric.Then a quick squeeze of the ball sends a puff of air into the container of chalk and forces some of the chalk out the opening onto the fabric resulting in a small horizontal chalk mark on the fabric. The garment is then carefully taken off and the hem can be pressed along the chalk marks and finished as desired. It is a pretty quick and accurate way to mark a hemline.
I can see Holly did answer you, I do have the best viewers! I love how we all work together to help each other out:) Thanks for the great question:)

I will make it as a bib, and just large enough to fit her wheelchair
This project is great to make for Alzheimer patients!
Could you fuse your backing and then cut your squares?
sure :)
@@SewVeryEasy Thank you. I didn't know if it would make a difference. So many times I have seen to cut and then put on the fusible. Again, thank you and keep the wonderful videos coming!
where is thepattern for the quilt in the background
I do not have one, yet:)
with metal accessories would not wash well.... would rust
you can wash them but will need to be dried well after. Just like metal buttons and snaps :)
You kept talking about "them" and "they." To whom are you referring?
I've heard that when you make these you should use items as if you are making it for a child. Dementia and alzheimer people can be very strong.
To much talking. Boarding
