This quilt is SO SO soft!!! Don't let the term "quilt" throw you - it's thinner than the old-fashioned quilts your grandmother made. It's exactly what I needed, and I love that it's more than big enough for my king size bed! I use this as a coverlet between my top sheet and my comforter. Typically, I'm too hot for the comforter but the sheet doesn't cut it. So I fold the comforter down at night, and the quilt is absolutely perfect and so comfortable! I'm thrilled with my purchase and would buy it again!
