The reverse side is textured in a wavy material.  It does not look that great.  The nicer side is the one with the lines.  The problem is that the quilt does not  lay well on the bed,  especially off the sides where it is hanging.  The reverse side is causing it to not look smooth.  It gives it kind of a cheap look.   The quilt is comfortable and not too hot, but it could look better if both sides were the same pattern.  I will not be using it in my master bedroom, it will go in the guest room.
