How to Make a Fidget Quilt

You can make your own fidget quilt from a few fabrics and craft items. To make the quilt, first cut out 3 squares each from 3 different types of fabric to give you 9 squares in total. Sew the squares together into 3 strips, using alternating fabrics to give it a patchwork look. Then, sew the strips together using 1/4-inch seams. Once you’ve sewn your quilt, you can add decorations, like beads, buttons, tassels, and yo-yos. A yo-yo is like a hair scrunchie with a closed back. To make one, cut a circle out of fabric and stitch around the edge. Then, remove your needle, pull on both ends of the thread, and tie the ends together. To make a tassel, just cut a few pieces of yarn to the same length, fold them through a hair tie so the ends are the same lengths, then tie another piece of string around the top of the yarn to keep it all together.
