I agree with those who say, that depends...in my case we donate them to people we have contact with--not a one-time encounter with a total stranger.
That being said, I want to make sure they are attractive when I make them. One of the reasons I started making them to give away was because I felt like so much of what was around me was pretty drab/grey, dull. I wanted to make something to cheer up a lady who might look at it. So, yes, I want my quilts to be pretty--not necessary drop dead gorgeous.
