    My son has autism, and his special ed teacher and aide go above and beyond to make his school life productive and happy.

    His aide is getting her BA, so I made the quilted cover for a composition book for note-taking and the like. She's of Mexican heritage, so I used scraps from a Mexican-themed quilt I made this year. I got the pattern from American Patchwork & Quilting Dec. 2010 issue, although mine looks very different due to the fabric!

    I made the coasters for his teacher. I hope she likes them.

    Happy Holidays, everybody!

    My stepson also has autisum and I will have to wait to give gifts to his teacher's and aid's. We had a snow storm that closed schools 2 days early and now they are home until the 3rd of Jan. I love your book cover's and everything! :XD: :thumbup:
