I think it’s lovely.  I love the material.  It is kind  of like a light, or soft, burlap.  It isn’t ovedressy, which I like.  I also like the raised design.  It’s a light grey/beige, so neutral and goes with everything.  I think it’s classy, but not fussy.  It can be more simple and rustic which fits my home.  But the edges do not lay flat (I read this in other reviews).  It almost gives a wavy appearance along the edges, even after ironing.  It’s fine with me, but just understand that is how it is.  I am happy with it.
