    I know I saw a discussion about a quilt with pellets in it for people with special needs. I think I even saw some pictures of it being made and it was suggested that the pellets could be purchased at Joanns for for $6.99 a bag. Am I crazy or does someone else remember this for me. I did a search but could not find it. HELP please. Carol

    I haven't looked at any of the links in this topic, but it might be information you are looking for. If not search Weighted Blanets or quilts and you will find more.

    If you go to www.projectlinus.org/patterns you can find a weighted blanket. It uses sheets as filler.

    You are right that you saw it here, because I remember seeing it also, and if I am not mistaken, there was also a vest pattern. But the others have put up some good links, hope that you can use them
