Hello and congratulations, Carl. You did a great job! What a wonderful thing to make QOV quilts. You are a sweet boy, and Charisma, you are a very, very special angel to have been given this child for your care. May you both bask in God's blessing for many years.
Love and hugs to both of you! RMW

She was the perfect coach for him and all was successful.
It is a sweet weekend too because he (Carl) just read a book about aspergers (we have never told him he had it..he has a mild case) and he came to us (his dad and I) and said "I think I have aspergers." We told him we already knew. He wasn't upset about it...and he even smiled as he went through the book and pointed out all of the things he identifies with. :thumbup:
He has two of each pattern/fabrics.
Blessings!

All I can say is WOW!

What a handsome young man your son is, and how lovely that he has found an outlet for his creativity in quilting. What an accomplishment for a 13-year-old!
