Alright. So my pellets arrived this week. I have to say, I knew that 14lbs would be... well, 14lbs, but I do feel that its quite a lot of weight for a blanket. Ive never handled an adult weighted blanket, but I'm wondering if I should still attempt to weight this small quilt. Im at a bit of a standstill while I decide if I am going to continue this as a duvet cover or not. I could always make a weighted blanket in addition to the quilt. Im thinking Ill go ahead and make the insert for the duvet, and once I feel what its like with the weight dispersed I can decide if Ill make the quilt into its cover.
