I have a queen mattress set with thick mattresses so I ordered the King Multi (earth tone) set and turned the quilt with the stripes running vertically instead of horizontally as shown in the picture. It is perfect!  The quilt works like a light weight spread with enough length to tuck in the regular pillows during the day. The queen set would have been too small and the mattresses would have shown. The shams and extra pillows are a bonus!  Great value for the price!!  Perfect weight for spring, summer and fall!
