Hi from Ohio!

My puzzle piece quilts have come from 2 sources. I bought the Scroll Saw Pattern Book by Patrick and Patricia Spielman and got some good jigsaw applique patterns (remembering to add seam allowances) there. Later, I used simple coloring pages and cut them up to make more jigsaw applique patterns. Both types were well recieved.

Here is a link to a free pattern for a jigsaw baby quilt. I'm sure you can alter the number of blocks to make it the size you want: http://quilting.about.com/od/quiltpa...lt-pattern.htm

You might Google "Project Linus" for your area. I know they make Autism Quilts but don't know abaout a puzzle pattern.

Here is a link to a Hoffman pattern. Not as easy as the squared pattern, but it is a good one. And it is free!

Hi Karen - Welcome from Spring, Texas.

Are you looking for a pattern for the weighted autism quilts or just a puzzle piece pattern? If you need info on the weighted version, please PM me.

Karen,

You may have already got a pattern by now. I just finished a top to one and it is in the process of being quilted. You can get a free pattern at www.jukeboxquilts.com. I had a difficult time with her methods so I raw edge appliqued it.. She gave permission to raffle it.

I am working on an Autism Quilt for a fundraiser in October. What I did was print coloring pages of various puzzle pieces and embroidered them on bleached muslin in assorted primary colors. I am in the process of joining these blocks together with some fabric that has a black background sprinkled with primary colored puzzle pieces. I plan on quilting around the embroidered puzzle pieces and tying the other squares with primary colored embroidery floss.
That is my vision, and I hope it all comes together as planned. Seems to be alot easier than applique work and looks really nice too. Just finished an awareness ribbon quilt with embroidered purple ribbons for a fundraiser for people with Chiari Malformation!:thumbup:
