Cameo Toile Red Quilt Set

This quilt set is one heck of a value. If you are looking for a 100% cotton, cotton fill quilt...this is it. I am only sorry I did not order it sooner. The reverse side is a georgeous soft stripe, back of shams match...It is a definite oversize queen..The value is tremendous after pricing 100% cotton quilts elsewhere. OVERTSTOCK did it again..Hope you enjoy it as much as I am!!!

The colors are portrayed incorrectly. The quilt by itself is not particularly pretty, but can be spruced up with pretty throw pillows, a red throw, etc. The most aggravating thing is that the king size quilt comes with standard size pillow shams. Who does that?

Bought this for an accent quilt in our living room. King size is HUGE (that is my mistake!) Colors are NOT as depicted; it is a darker tan color as opposed to the natural muslin it appears in the photo. The red is a deep red (not really maroon or burgandy, still a true red, but very deep). The striped side is where I was more disappointed. It does not have the variation shown in the picture. It appears very washed out and the two colors of tan are almost imperceptible from one another. If you are going for tan with red accent, this would work but if you are looking for something that really warms the room with lots of red, this will disappoint. The fabric feels like a low thread count, but I have yet to find a machine-sewn, cotton quilt under $100 that has a nice hand to it. The quilt itself is soft enough and flexible, not stiff or starchy. The stitching looks hand sewn because it is uneven and crooked in some places. That does not bother me at all, it adds to the charm of having a quilt. Gives it the hand-sewn look. The scalloped edges are nicely done and the quilting is done in a frame work within a framework with some accents like a braided band and some curly cues (I have no idea what the actual stitch pattern names are!) While I was disappointed in the colors, it will still work for what I need it for. If you rely on reviews instead of the picture, you should not be disappointed. I am a little worried about washing as it has the "tea stained" look that often bleeds. If washing significantly improves or diminish the quality, I will return and edit this review.

I am always on the lookout for good bedding. When I saw this set I just fell in love w/ it! I just received it recently. I am very pleased. The quilt is very sturdy and wellmade. It is not a thick bulky quilt but I live in Tx and this is perfect in all seasons. The background is a soft tan and the floral is a dark red. The back side is a softer faded look with stripes of pale reds and tan. The shams are the same print and quilted fabric on the front side, then a striped cotton back side. The scalloped edging is really nice. It is on all four sides of the quilt and all around the shams as well. The quilt and shams fit very well on my queen size bed. I ordered the full/queen size. I have read other buyers are getting king size for queen beds. I prefer the look of the bed skirt showing and a king would have definitely covered that. It is a perfect fit for my bed. Overall I am pleased with the set. It has a soft, romantic, vintage appeal without fussy bows and ribbons. I do a cottage style decor in my home and this set really fits in. This is my third bedding set purchase from o/s in the last couple months and I haven't been disappointed yet. I have shopped a great deal for these quilted sets online and in stores and you will not find quality sets like this for overstock's price. Even a simple quilted sham elsewhere will cost what I paid for this entire set. Overstock rocks!
