Today I want to share with you all about my process of making a quilt for someone very special to me: my nephew. He is the reason people now can refer to me as "Aunty", which makes him extra special :)
I actually started off with making two almost identical baby quilts, one for my baby boy (who was around 4 or maybe 5 months old) and another one for my nephew (at the time his mother was still pregnant with him). Since the recipients of the quilts were both boys, there was no room for any doubts and the colors chosen were blue and green. I chose red for the color of the border because I wanted something to "break" the color scheme and give the quilt a very clear and defined edge. All the fabrics I used were in my stash, except for the red polka dot fabric which I purchased at my local fabric shop.
