Others complained about the color of the background being beige and not white. I even hesitated to purchase due to those reviews, glad I just took the chance and ordered it anyway. Some people must be color blind, the background is "off white" not beige. In fact as a quilt set it would look cheap in bright white and we are very happy with the colors. If you want an overhang on the queen bed to serve as both a blanket and bedspread, get the king size and it is perfect. Hopes this review helps many with size and color.
