I suspect several things were going on in the childs head. 1) She probably wanted money! 2) She hasn't learned how to graciously say thank you for something she's not crazy about. 3) Her priorities are very different from yours. When she gets older she may actually appreciate the quilt.
Had a similar experience with my older daughter and a gift she got from my sister when she graduated from 8th grade. I could not believe what she said, it was so rude! Believe me, she was set straight about how to say thank you.
