This quilt is semi light and perfect for the summer nights.  The pattern is perfect and this is my favorite quilt now.  I always wash things like this before putting them on the bed and they washed very well and I am sure it will hold up well for many years to come.  You would think of gray as a rather bland color, but I bought curtains with sheers attached and a gray bed ruffle and it is a perfect match and made my bedroom look perfect in every way.
