Being colorful and so geometric should be appealing to a younger person. The fact that this person is artistic means they will understand the creativity and work that went into making this quilt and should be very appreciative. Two of my brothers are artists and when I was younger I used to be very concerned about giving them things that were 'homemade'. One day I gave my very successful artistic brother a quilt and he told me he couldn't believe how I could take a piece of flat fabric and turn it into something so beautiful - it changed my life!
