Fidget Blanket (Nesteldecke) Block 16 Pillow w/ribbon tabs

Making these pieces for Oma Hilde‘s Fidget Blanket / Nesteldecke helped me feel like I could help her through her rough days of dementia- she did seem to enjoy it when ever I placed it in front of her. Each time I showed it to her- it was new all over again. She would state how pretty it was. I miss Oma, but happy that she is in a better place now. 

Fidget Blanket Block 16 Pillow w/ribbon tabs 

Pinned all the ribbon in place and then sewed them down. These measured at about 7“ each, next time I might make them a little shorter. 








Leave an opening and flip inside out- stuff with batting or fabric remnants as needed.
