The main color is more of a soft green than a light blue.  The bedspread is very generous in size and well made.  It comes to the floor on three sides and it's a nice weight; can be used all year-round.  The pillow shams have a zipper opening.  This is great because it's very difficult to get pillows into shams that have on a layered opening.  I would recommend purchasing this bedspread if this is the style you're looking for.
