Puzzle balls for autistic children
Hi! I'm new to this forum but not to quilting. I am interested in making puzzle balls for autistic children. My two 5 yr old twin grandsons were diagnosed recently and I made them puzzle balls when they were two. They are still their favorite toys. I used alphabet fabric to spell out their names. Now other parents are interested in them for their autistic kids, too. Anyone interested?

Re: Puzzle balls for autistic children
Hi quilt4tea, welcome to this wonderful forum. I'm sure you'll enjoy everything that's here. Be sure to join in some of the swaps or sew-alongs. as to your project, I'm interested but confused. Can you be a little more specific. Is there a pattern? Do you make a ball stuffed with fiberfill? Or? Or? Would we be provided names or just submit letters? Or? or? Maybe a picture would help. Thanks, carol/kittyquilt
