I designed the Sit-With-Me Weighted Lap Quilt to help calm my son in over-stimulating situations. he has a tendency to get very hyper when he`s not sure what he is supposed to be doing (like sitting at the dinner table). The Sit-With-Me uses deep pressure therapy to calm him and give him a gentle reminder that he is supposed to be sitting. I have had clients use the Sit-With-Me to calm anxieties in the car, at school, in the work environment, and as a little extra weight to help them fall asleep at night.
The weights in the Sit-With-Me laps and quilts are more condensed so the blankets are heavier than the Quilted Illusions Weighted Quilts, They are designed to be used for shorter periods of time, for example; until someone falls asleep. After they are sleeping, the Sit-With-Me should be removed. Each Sit-With-Me is first quilted on my long-arm quilting machine. I then fill the quilt with poly-pellets, sewing each section of the Sit-With-Me closed as I fill it. After filling the Sit-With-Me, I hand bind the edges.
The Sit-With-Me is machine washable. I offer 2 pound (12 x 22), 4 pound (18 x 28), 5 pound (26 x 35) or 10 pound (35 x 45) sizes; or I can custom-make a Sit-With-Me for any size.
