I ordered the quilt in a Queen size - The colors are so vivid and it is such a nice strong cotton, the shams are also big enough for a fluffy pillow. My mattress and box spring are very high and the queen size did not come down low enough so I ordered the king size one also. Used the shams from the queen on bed, put the queen quilt at end of bed with stripe side showing and will make valance topper for my window. Absolutely beautiful set and would strongly recommend it to other family members and friends. The best quilt I have every purchased. I gave it 5 stars.
