I purchased this quilt about a year ago and did not use it until recently.  I loved the quality, size, and color.  I had a spill that required that I was only the quilt and to my amazement, the color faded.  I washed it in cold water so I can't understand why it faded as it did.  As you can see the pillow scam is much more vivid in color than the quilt now.  Very disappointing.
