I absolutely LOVE this quilt!! We use it in the summer in Michigan. I'm sure it'd be fine with a few blankets in the winter. We bought the 1800 series sheets in Sage and they match perfectly! The Tan is fine too but the sage really matches! This is the perfect quilt for when you want comfort but not a lot of warmth in the warm seasons. It's quite soft- it's flexible- not stiff like some other quilts I've had. It goes perfectly with our rustic lodge like decor!
