For those who don't know, Pillbug is almost
4 and autistic.
Pillbug does not like toys, only real things.
DH requested on his photography board for
someone to send us a broken camera because
Pillbug has always had a fascination for
cameras. A wonderful man in Canada sent
us a camera, two stuffed toys, and a beautiful
letter. Pillbug loves the camera - for all
that he does not pay attention and follow
instructions, he learned quickly how to wind
and click.
I want to make something quilty (probably a
wall hanging) for this man, but don't know
what. I found an appliqué template for a
camera, but don't really want to do that.
Are silhouettes particularly photography-ic?
I'm not coming up with any good ideas...
Thanks,
Anita

What about....... a silhouette of Pillbug playing with a camera and a person
taking a photo of him. Does that make sense? Oooh I can see it now - I
reckon it'd be gorgeous.

Wow, Sharon. That's such a fine idea I can hardly stand it. If Anita made
the nice guy a wall hanging, chances are slim to none that she could
possibly guess what manner of decorating would please him. A picture of her
Pillbug enjoying the camera would be a thank you note worth more than 1,000
words. There are a few thank-yous here that came with pictures of the
recipient enjoying the gift. They are precious to me and I treasure them
every one. Polly

This is exactly correct. I know nothing about
this man, but that he went out of his way to
be kind to my son. I want this to be something
that he doesn't have to hang up, but it would
be cool anyway.
