Carl my 13 (almost 14) year old son (who also happens to have Aspergers as most of you know) made 10 quilts for QOV.

He finished the tops quite some time ago..and we are just getting them donated.....this is the last one I got a picture of....he did such a nice job I am so proud of him!

This was his favorite quilt. I kind of wish we could keep it because it is his favorite but we made it for a purpose....and the purpose is a good one.

We need to support our troops and their families... thank them for all they sacrifice!

Carl loved the colors in this and the backing fabric ....he also did a "Custom" quilting job on this quilt....he quilted stars in one corner and straight lines to make it look like a flag....

Thanks for all of you who cheer him on..he is really appreciative.

Blessings to all of you!
