I am almost always nervous choosing items online. It’s hard to determine quality. This quilt is perfect for summer, replacing my bulky comforter. The material feels good and the colors work well together

I love this quilt. The quality is very good & the colors are just as advertised. It arrived much faster than I thought it would. All in all, I am A+ pleased.

I got this queen-sized quilt for my king-sized bed. I have the MALM bed from Ikea, and I didn’t want a king-sized quilt because it would have grazed the floor, so I got the queen size and it fits perfectly! It is very soft and comfortable…..great for all seasons. My only issue was that the shade of blue was not exactly what I was expecting (has more of a green tinge than a baby blue). But, with the right lighting, no one can tell it doesn’t exactly match my walls!

We bought this quilt for my mom. My wife added her own customized squares with embroydered pictures on them and sewed them in. It looked fantastic.

I’m not by any means the decorator of the family, but my wife was very impressed. My goal was to rid ourselves of all polyester which prevented our bed from breathing. Who knew that one of the most affordable all cotton bedspreads would be so beautiful too? For that I’m taking some ribbing, no matter though, I’m very pleased with my purchase. We are replacing a fairly standard (poly/cotton) comforter that wouldn’t provide an even temperature throughout the night. Too hot, kick the comforter off, too cold. This one was perfect (Three bears?). I didn’t move much during the night and slept comfortably straight though.
The bedspread seems well made and time will tell. It fits our sleep number queen perfectly. We are currently using a set of water bed drawers for the bed frame so the setup is on the low side, 21″ floor to pillow top. The bedspread almost touches the floor on both sides. I’ll be replacing the comforter in our motor home with another of these this spring.

This was a most unexpected suprise when it was delivered. The size, the weight, and the detail on this bedspread are all wonderful. I wish everything I had ever ordered was as satisfactory as this bedspread. I love it! Jerry

Purchased this for my Guest bedroom. Did not purchase shams at first but then purchased later-
All that have seen it have agreed that is is very beautiful. Due to bed being a pillowtop and so high, I had to put a bedskirt on bed. I would recommend this item as it is very nice.

Based on the picture, description, and the glorious reviews, I was sure that this was the bedspread I’d been looking for! It is indeed beautiful and is obviously of high quality. So many reviewers talked about how it was the perfect size for even tall mattresses, but it didn’t work on our bed. We have a temperpedic mattress (which are very heavy)so one of my goals in buying this particular bedspread was to get rid of the bedskirt. However when I excitedly put it on our bed, the sides were a full 6 inches off the floor. Ironically, it was very long, with the corners at the foot of the bed dragging on the floor. When I pulled the bedspread up more toward the head of the bed, the corners didn’t drag, but the flower pattern no longer followed the edge of the bed. Frustrated, I ended up sending it back.

I just bought this quilt a few weeks ago along with two matching shams. I really love the quilt. It is the perfect top layer in the midst of this cold winter. We have other blankets and a comforter under it, but, when Spring comes, will use it with just one thin blanket under- or perhaps just a sheet.
One minor concern is that the color was a bit different than I expected. I was expecting an off white, but, the color seems more like a very pale yellow.
That’s not a big concern though… I really am enjoying this quilt.

This is a great book, full of inspiration and wonderful quilts. There’s something for the beginner but also ideas and layouts for the more experienced. Clear instructions and lots of pics. Can’t go wrong with this one.
