This blanket is absolutely beautiful and excellent quality. It's not the thermal blanket that keeps growing and growing as it stretches until a twin size could be used on a king sized bed. It is actually more like a lightweight Matelasse coverlet than a blanket. It's the perfect weight and the color (aqua) is oh, so relaxing! I have a guest room that is done with aqua and yellow and this is just stunning. (It's also a perfect match to the Vera Wang sheets I have.)
