W E I G H T E D Q U I L T T U T O R I A L - PDF format
This tutorial provides detailed instructions for making a weighted quilt/blanket.
My 4th daughter, Lucy, struggles with sensory issues and needs a weighted quilt to sleep and calm herself. I found that they can be quite expensive and since I am able to sew, I was able to make a 5 pound blanket myself for just about $35 by using coupons to purchase the supplies.
Weighted blankets/quilts are used to improve body awareness, facilitate calm, improve attention and focus, and decrease sensory seeking behaviors. They are a powerful and effective calming tool for children with Autism spectrum disorders, Sensory Processing Disorder, Rett Syndrome, ADHD/ADD and PTSD.
Stressed out moms can benefit from them too:-)

NEEDED TOOLS AND MATERIALS:
100% cotton fabric for front and back of blanket
poly-pellets for weight
high-loft batting (poly or cotton)
matching thread (for front and back)
fabric marking pen
long wrapping paper tube
yard stick

scale that measures ounces
10-15 small cups such as Dixie cups (optional)
sewing machine
walking foot – optional, for easier construction (directions are written as if you don’t have this)

SKILL LEVEL:
A beginner can make this pattern. It is easy because it is all straight lines, but managing the weight can be challenging. Patience will really help you with this project, but it is so worth it in the end. A walking foot cuts the time almost in half, but the instructions are written with the assumption that you are not using one. Depending on your skill level and equipment, this project takes between 6-12 hours.
