It is absolutely beautiful! When my husband was in college one class he took was in child development and they said bright colors stimulate babies and their learning process, so after that when I made a baby blanket (crochet or quilt) I make it with bright colors. My daughter took a similar class 25 years later and they are still saying the bright colors are better than pastels. So depending on what you want from the quilt - the brighter the better.
