the pattern is really sharp looking and the colors are even better in person. often these types of patterns look poor in person - like low resolution. this one has crisp lines, nice consistent stitching. it is quite thin which is fine since we are using a rug pad and should make it easier to wash in our home machine being thinner. our 8x10 washable warrants a trip to the laundromat so we don't ruin our own washing machine
