OK - don't buy this quilt looking for something to keep you super warm. Its EXTREMELY thin, but has a nice and basic pattern that almost reminds me of mermaid scales (thats a plus). I just use it to cover our comforter and add a little extra interest on the bed. My fiance likes to give me the comforter and sleep with just this because he tends to get hot at night - but for me it would never keep me warm enough.
