Tutorial for textured blocks
 
These are some amazingly beautiful quilt blocks that have all kind of texturing features for a really lovely quilt. I wonder if they would be helpful in a "fidget" quilt for those suffering from dementia/alzheimers.

I love the different aspects of those blocks. Great way to test my skills. I've bookmarked this. Thanks for the link!

I never saw this techniques before. I think it would work very well.

Thanks for the link. I have a couple of books on fabric texturizing techniques, so most of the ones illustrated are familiar, but haven't found a layout that I like. I think this will fill the bill!

DEFINITELY they would be stimulating for dementia patients... or babies! I love the origami pinwheel, and you could also add some others such as biscuit quilt blocks or stuffed bow tie blocks. Anything 3-D is great.
