This quilt is dark in tone, not soft like the picture. There is more variation in the color so it is busier than we thought it would be. Still, we like it. We haven't used it yet, but we like how it looks in the room we are setting up. The quilt has hangers on one edge so it could be slipped over a curtain rod to hang on the wall. We didn't expect this. We don't need to hang the quilt, but others might appreciate this. I gave it four stars because the color wasn't what I expected.
