I love the first pattern and in different fabrics they would look different! As others have said: it depends if you get bored making the same bloch over and over. Also, may be your aunts with their different personalities and tastes would like to have something different from what the other one would have. As Tink's Mom said by doing the first you will see how you feel about the other one: same or different. Both patterns are nice and they will love it for sure.
