This is such a beautiful quilt type bedspread.! Heavy enough to use alone to keep you warm. I washed it once already and it holds up to washing very well. I ordered the King for a queen bed because of the reviews and if you want it to hang almost to the floor you will need the king. But my bed is kind of high as it is an antique bed so be sure to measure from one side to the other side from the floor so that you know whether it will be too long. You will not be disappointed!
