| Aidan's Pirate Quilt |
This was a birthday quilt for Aidan's 4th birthday. Gordon said he really liked pirates. I just gathered different fabrics with pirates or ships and started putting it together. It turned out that I liked the map fabric and the blue ship fabric better than the pirates. So what was going to be the border became the center motif. I added the pieced ship and the compass in the top two corners. The bottom two corners have fish, treasure chests and mermaids.
I did not follow a pattern for this quilt. I would put pieces up on the design wall and the quilt told me what to do.
