If that is not a quilt, then why even consider it as a gift choice? To call her unappreciative because her taste is different than yours is not really fair. If you liked dark chocolate and she liked white chocolate, which would you give her?
You are wise and it is good we all remember that. It's just because we love someone we want to do for them and forget their interests.
