    I am new here and I'm going to try and show a few pictures of the quilts that I have made.

    Just a little about myself I am 34 years old live in Ohio with my husband and my 9 year old son, who happens to have autism.

    My son has autism and this is the quilt that hangs in his game room. I love the bright colors. I call it Autism's Puzzle.

    This is my red white and blue geese quilt. It is on my son's bed, he could absolutly care less about it. Because it's not transformers.

    Lovely work! I want to do the puzzle one for my daughter, as we spent many hours doing puzzles together.

    We have a nephew who sits on the spectrum around "Aspergers". I have a tremendous amount of respect and understanding for parents of these special angels.

    Welcome!

    those are great.... can't decide which one I like the best - I have yet to do a Sunbonnet but I've always wanted to do one....

    sorry about the autism - our middle child had a stroke at a very young age (under two) and has spent a life time trying to overcome that along with heart surgery (asd) and other assorted things and being ridiculed in school for being handicapped...

    she managed to get through all of that (she's 40) and still lives with us and is a blessing...

    hang in there...
