I love yours! I just finished one for a friend that has Fibro-Myalgia, but I didn't piece it. I used a solid piece of minkee and a solid piece of flannel for the back. I like the pieced look. And I love the cat. Hope it helps your SIL!

If you go to www.mansewing.com he has a tutorial on making a weighted blanket. You will find it under the Blog tab and then around the 7th or 8th page.
