I read how weighted blankets can help sensory-seeking kids calm down and sleep better, so decided to make one for my kiddo! Found our worn-out 300+ thread count duvet cover, fitted sheet, and pillow shams that were a wedding present (knew I kept them for a reason) and lo, they weighed 6 lbs, perfect!! 66 x 40 finished size, tied by sewing at fabric corners and middle spots, machine binding made from an end remnant of the fitted sheet. Very little waste, and kept the zipper to convert two flat sheets into a new duvet cover later! Started it last night when the kids went to bed, finished this afternoon. Kiddo loves it, and my fingers are crossed that it helps him fall asleep more quickly!! ;)
