Fidelity mats
I read about making fidjit mats for Alzheimer's patients on this board and decided to make some. They came out very nice and took them to our local nursing home. I just got a call from the volunteer telling me their therapy people liked them and the patients liked them too. I do not make them any bigger than a fat quarter, using different types of fabrics, silks, corduroy, fleece, and strips of ribbon or lace in the seams. My backing is flannel and I use the birth method with rounded corners but you could also bind them but make sure it's machine stitched. They make great use of scraps and perhaps bring a bit of comfort. Don't know how to post pics which are worth a 1000 words.
