The photo of this quilt is not true to the actual appearance.  The pattern was pretty, but I was expecting bright, cheerful colors.  The the colors are actually muted earth tones.  The red is more of a rust, and blue is very faint.  It was made well and would have been a nice weight for either summer or winter, and the price was a good value.  So I would recommend this quilt for the pattern, quality, and price, but keep in mind the colors are not true to the photo - think fall/autumn colors, not bright summer colors.
