I sometimes wonder, as I complicate a pattern beyond belief, why I tend to think that simple is less effective!? It also helps to be very sure of the recipient's tastes. But hey, they like it and that is why you made it so it is all good.

Maybe your quilting is so fantastic that they just love being able to see every detail of it. I usually love the backs of my hand quilted quilts the best, my machine one's, not so much. I'm sure they love it and appreciate all of your efforts no matter how they use it.

i have a vest similar to your description and i love it. i wear it just about every year.
Reminds me of the vest I made my SIL several years ago. Used Christmas fabrics to make 5" crazy quilt blocks, fancy machine stitches with gold, red or green metallic threads on all the seam lines. It's lined to the edge with a Christmas print, and she wears it lining side out.
LOL, I guess just as long as she likes it it's OK.
