I have made an autism quilt tracing large floor puzzle pieces and placing them around a solid background. The puzzle piece is the symbol of autism. Also online i found puzzle piece fabric to make pieces with. I also have used a drunkard's path block. These kids with autism do not necessarily follow a straight path through life.

I made a wall hanging last year as a Christmas gift for a
former co-worker who has 2 sons who have Autism.
They have friend who placed orders for some, so far I
have made 4 of these wall hangings.
If my memory serves me correct it measures approx.
18x32 inches and I sold them for $55.

For what it's worth, we carry four puzzle-pieces fabric, including these two:

In the past, I've made quilts, a teddybear from a log cabin square of puzzle fabric and hand dyed cotton. My DD bought me a cute little "shelf sitter" made from the puzzle fabric. (little gal figure with weighted material in her butt to set on shelf or whereever. I'll take a pic afterawhile.
