There is an in-between here. There are those of us who do consider our audience quite carefully, but whose husbands, brothers, fathers, sons, or what-have-you do not fall into the macho stereotype when it comes to their aesthetic sense.
The women on this board have a very wide diversity of tastes. Why shouldn't men share the same diversity?

I think I made it generic enough not to offend anyone. Or everyone.
I said the quilt was well made and quite beautiful. Men will generally accept anything with good grace, that's part of the love game. But...
Take my advice or leave it. If you walk through life thinking you are the quilter and everyone has to love it or leave it, well, you are missing something. Something pretty big.
