Default Will this quilt appeal to a younger artistic person

[ATTACH=CONFIG]534426[/ATTACH]

I am having a really hard time with this quilt and stepping outside of what I personally like. I am trying to make this for a niece who is an abstract artist and is into really bright colors do you think this will appeal to somebody like that please be honest I don't want to spend a lot of time working on something that she will hate. Thank you for Your opinion.

I absolutely love it. Our Prayers and Squares group just had a sit-and-sew to learn this pattern. Your colors and fabrics are absolutely youthful and artistic.

What I have found, if the person loves you, they will love anything you do for them. So yes, she will love it

If they are a little snot, nothing you do will make them happy. Just saying.

It is absolutely going to be loved by your niece because you made it especially for her. I don't like modern quilts but I like yours.

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!
