 Alzheimer’s Fidget Quilts for Sale Online

Aprons, Purses and more 

fidget-apronFidget quilts are a happy resource for the person with dementia and fidgeting fingers.

While caring for my Mom with dementia, I noticed that she could not stop fidgeting her hands. Sometimes she would wring her hands until I thought a finger might surely break.

Mom was a “depression” baby and as a young girl she watched her family struggle and strive to make a living while the depression and its financial crises  of the ’30’s weighed down on them.

From this experience during her youth, Mom once again worried about money as the dementia began to kidnap her thoughts. Mom would spend hours wringing her hands like a wash rag, and worrying her fingers till they were red.

Finally, I retrieved an old purse and filled it with things she loved; a crinkled bank statement, small photo album, pen, seek-n-find book and a tube of red lipstick. She was a blonde and loved deep red lipstick. That purse swung from her arm whenever she left her room, even after she’d moved to a Group Home shortly before her passing.

When I first wrote an article about an Alzheimer’s  Fidget Blanket/ Quilt, I thought of Mom and her “purse.” She would have loved a Fidget Blanket. I know many of you have been searching for one also as I’ve read your letters.

I recently found the Sweetest Fidget Blankets that I’ve seen. She creates Patchwork Quilts for sale online and much much more.  Besides Fidget Quilts, this seller also crafts; Fidget Aprons, Fidget Bibs, Fidget Purses, aprons and more. And she accepts Custom Orders! Male or Female, even quilts on sale for the Autistic Child. You can find Nan on Etsy.
