This is a PP ribbon pattern by Carol Doak. I used the autism awareness fabric for the ribbon.

How cute!

Fabulous! We have high rates of Autism in our little town..we have a huge ribbon that lights up on the hill over looking our town..Lots of awareness here!

Really nice.I wasnt aware there was a ribbon for autism.Please tell me more about the ribbon.Thanks..pab

Dorian,

Very nice. I'm guessing your 10 year old, Marcus has autism. Life was very rough when my son with autism was 10. He is now 17 and doing so well. He will graduate from high school in May and just began working his first job, (with a job coach). His future looks very bright.

Sending good thoughts to you.

Elise

Looking good. Did you make it 3"?

Love your kids' names.

Autism is a big puzzle, thus the puzzle piece ribbon. Nobody knows for sure what causes it (there are many theories). Plus, there are many different cases of autism, some very severe and some more high functioning.

Love that, my son has autism also, I love that fabric, have a ton of it here!

Elise, actually both of my boys are on the spectrum now. Marcus was diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder when he was 3. Miles was just diagnosed with Aspergers this summer. Miles has really been the challenge for us lately. He's been higher maintenance than both Marcus & Mackenzie combined. lol Marcus is in 4th grade. He's mainstreamed 50% and special ed. 50%. He's very high functioning. Quite verbal, although you have to know him to understand everything. Lacks social skills though.

Jeepers, I really rambled here. lol I love talking about my kids.

Congrats to you & your son!! I love hearing success stories.

I would love to see your avatar up close. Those look like puzzle pieces. ;)
