Very pretty color, and I like them overall.  However, I was really looking for something a bit softer, thicker, and more absorbent.  They are rougher and a bit less absorbent than I would have liked.  I think they were more expensive than they should have been, given their quality.  Also, while it may be a fluke, the stitching wasn't completed on one of the towels in the set I received.  I think I will be pleased with them in the long run, but I also wish I could find something closer to my original vision.
