Wow! Bright white fabric, thick but light, and hard-to-find 100% cotton inside and out!  The geometric pattern gives this quilt a modern look.  We are using it over the duvet for a finished look.  In the summer, we'll take off the duvet and use this quilt by itself.  One caution, though, the shams that came with the king size quilt are not for king-size pillows - they are either standard or queen.  No big deal, I didn't plan to use the shams anyway.
