It is a great quilt but I think I see your problem with it.......it's very busy and yes it has a Juvenal feel to it. If your aunt is younger at heart and likes brighter more colorful things then it will be fine. Maybe your hesitant because it's not color choices you usually make and it's out of your comfort zone. I am in the process of choosing fabrics to make a quilt for my MIL (over 70) and wold not feel comfortable giving this quilt to her. But nothing about this looks or feels like her.
