I made a form of this but I used a single bed duvet/ bedsheet cover, only took me about 45 minutes because I already had the 3 seams sewn. All I had to do was sew the columns and rows and then stuff! (And stitch the bottom up obviously) Also saves you going out buying the fabric, I already had the cover in the house. Great vid thank you!

I'm just a ridiculously anxious 21 year old and my mum mentioned that I used to sleep with like 9 blankets for the weight, and I brought it up to my therapist who suggested a weighted blanket (and slyly hinted there was a good tutorial online as I'm not bad on a sewing machine because they can be expensive) so thank you very much!

Tip: if you have any cakes of soap (bars, not liquid) they work very well for marking fabric. Darker soap for lighter colored fabrics and light colored soap for darker fabrics. Youe can easily cut thick shards off of the cake and its much cheaper than those markers.

After watching every video there is on KZread about weighted blankets I always come back to yours. I personally like the puffy look that you get by adding the stuffing, especially for kids. I think maybe that the stuffing helps the beads to lay more evenly? in other words they're not all bunched up at the bottom of the pocket. I spent this afternoon making 3 small weighted blankets for dogs or cats. I plan on donating them to an auction fundraiser for one of the rescue groups I foster for. Thank you!

This was fascinating. Looking at several videos I wondered why nobody sews/stuffs from the side of the blanket - rather than from the top/bottom. Seems like coming from the side would make the stuffing issue less difficult, as the pellets would be moved a shorter distance. Just the way I looked at it, I guess. I will probably be making one of these for myself - I've been sleeping under a stack of blankets and comforters for years - this looks like a great alternative.

Reminds me of the quilts we used to have on our beds when I was a child , I'm 82. I used to love wrapping a quilt around me in the winter. No central heating in those days.

I had read the old blog post and pinned it ages ago. but now I'm ready to sew it...I was thrilled to see you had a video. good one! thanks a bunch.

If you aren’t into doing all those measurements or don’t trust yourself to see straight, marking the line with painters tape and then sewing along the edge is crazy easy and comes out really well.

I love that zero stuffed animals were harmed 😂 and i appreciate the tips about keeping the pellets away from the needle, because it is really sad when they break. 🙂 thank you for the simple instructions and the positive mood. I'm excited to make one and confident that i can thanks to your lovely video🙂

This is so helpful! My 2.5 year old SPD son uses one and I want to learn to make them.so badly because as he grows it's expensive to replace the old one! This was the best video I have found yet!

I have a thought... Use fiber layer between cloth layers. Maybe pour your poly pellets into (cheap dollar store) stockings stitch at your mark for pockets. Drop one into each row. When ready to stitch pin between each pocket ... No muss no fuss... Just a thought.

Thank you so much for providing this tutorial! I have been looking at weighted blankets for some of my clients. I am a Behavioral/Mental health Coordinator and I have many young children that have suffered from severe Trauma, as well as some of my teenagers. I do love to sew as it is therapeutic for me also, being in this line of work we need some self care for ourselves too and this would be great! can do my own self care while making something to help my precious Clients as we work through their Trauma and Anxieties. Thank you again so very very much!!!!

This looks great! I do a lot of quilting and I'd recommend adding a binding to the edge of your quilt as that will reinforce those seams and ensure even after years of wear and tear no polyfil will come out. You can either make it from your main fabrics, a contrasting fabric so it's part of the design, or you can just buy pre-made binding in the fabric section/store. If you wanted added texture on the blanket (without worrying about the polyfil stretching it out) to help with grounding during/after panic/anxiety attacks or melt downs you could buy either fabric or a throw with an interesting texture like minky, fleece, microfiber, etc and just baste the two pieces together with large temporary basting stiches (or pin it with safety pins) and then just treat it like you would a single layer quilt top and make the blanket as normal. By doubling up that top texture layer with the cotton you reinforce the structure of the weaker fabric so it can't warp. The "pocket" lines you'll stitch along the blanket are technically quilting so they will also reinforce your blanket top further so it doesn't warp or stretch as well as keeping the two top layers in place. Then just cut your basting stitches or remove the pins at the end. 💗

Thank you this is just what I needed my cousin has autism and he out grew his weighted blanket but it was so expensive to replace and we couldn’t find the color he liked so now I’m making him one. Thank you.

If you see the blanket together across the middle of the columns you will have shorter columns and not need to stuff so far down. Then you will close the top and bottom the same. More manageable I think. You could alternate top and bottom rows as you start in the middle it will make the wright more even as you see and eliminate the center bulk while sewing faster. Less cumbersome all around

Ms Felder, I have fibromyalgia and restless legs syndrome and sometimes I wake up and cannot keep my legs still because of the pain. As you are a nurse, you may be aware that there is a medication specifically for this condition. My pain management dr recently prescribed it for me and it has made a tremendous difference! I don't have to take it regularly but she said that I could. I was also recently researching some other medications and happened to read that Gabapentin or Neurotin is also sometimes prescribed specifically for RLS. You might want to do some research and discuss with your dr to see if this could possibly help your legs. This may not be an option for you but would be worth looking into. My youngest daughter is an RN in a Pediatric Cardiology ICU in a major Medical University. My oldest daughter has anxiety and PTSD and the weighted blankets are very helpful! I'm glad to see this tutorial as I love to sew and will be making some of these. As a child, my room was cold and my parents would pile several quilts on us to stay warm. The weight of the quilts were very comforting.

Your generosity and willingness to share your expertise have made a significant impact on our family. It means the world to us to be able to provide our daughter with the comfort and security she needs. Your video not only taught us a valuable skill but also gave us hope and inspiration.

I wish I had a sewing machine and no arthritis. 😉 seriously, I would be so happy to try these type of blanket but yeah as you said expensive and don’t have any friends or family left. But I’m glad others can be blessed with them by people like yourself. You are a WONDERFUL person clearly!🌈

I Love My Kids Hi ty for replying, you are incredibly sweet! Love your sewing. Yes, I wish I could figure out how to get one. I just don’t live someplace that it’s realistic sadly. But yeah, can’t afford a machine and nobody to borrow from or help me to begin with. Lol sounds so sad writing this...... I live in middle Canada 🇨🇦 if that makes sense lol so shipping and everything from the states is unreal on top of the exchange and taxes. Makes me actually super sad. I don’t know any other people my age that have adult autism so I’m the only one of me I know. My insomnia is so bad that I hallucinate and have grand mal seizures from lack of sleep, by 48 hrs I start getting really bad and depressed and I go 92 hrs with maybe a couple cat naps of 20-40 mins which I wake up in panic shaking and sweating. It’s pretty bad. Sorry hun I didn’t mean to share all this yuck 🤢 stuff but I just have been sick now and wheelchair and home bound since my stroke. So KZread is MY ESCAPE SO I LIKE TO WATCH VIDEOS LIKE YOURS AND THANK YOU Jesus meet nice people like you. Thank you again for the reply and kindness♥️♥️🌈🌈🌻🌻🌟🌟 Hope things with you are well and your week ahead now is a good one! Peace ☮️ and loves 💗

Great tutorial, thank you!!

Amy White thank you!

Now that weighted blankets are ao popular... explains why i have alwaus slept better with multiple blankets and comforters always loved the weight more than a need for warmthm. I really like the stocking packet idea. ? How well do these wash? Does the poly fill bunch up with washings? Or is regular quilt batting more stable?

quilt batting is more stable. But I haven’t had a bunching problem. You can see in a sheet of batting to prevent bunching if you’d like.
