He is a wonderful quilter already. What a joy for him to be able to do quilts for QOV. I am sure he is so very proud as you are of him. (My grandson who is 12 has mild aspergers also. I am so glad it is finally being recognized and there is help out there.) Great job, Carl!

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!
