The quilt is lightweight, but the quality is good and pattern is pretty. It's true that the pattern on the back/corresponding color on the front is more of a sea foam green color than it appears in the photo and not an aqua, however, the other colors on the quilt balance the shade (especially where the sea foam green is next to a grey, kind of creating an aqua affect), and I have it in a room with aqua curtains and it looks good! I think even if you had an aqua wall/other features, you could balance it and tie it in with the right accessories. Zero regrets!
