Do the two aunts live near each other? Do they have similar taste? Maybe you can use coordinating fabrics and/or some of the same fabrics in the two quilts to link them together.
Yes they do. They're about 15 minutes from each other (both are about 3 hours from me) and see each other all the time. They're tastes are completely different though. One is fru-fru frilly (pinks and purples) and the other is the polar opposite (think neutrals).
