I needed something lite. This quilt has a very pretty pattern and the colors were perfect so I decided to order it. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised it was just what we needed for our bedroom. The quilt looks elegant and modern, great for the hot summer day in Florida. It does have a strange packaging odor so I washed it in the gentle cycle and then put in the dryer. Problem solved! My husband loved it! I’m a happy customer.
