The fabric is all cream, with panels of Chinese dragons in a different weave but the same colour. I think they'll look really good made up and will go well with other furnishings. I'm tempted to quilt so as to make the design stand out, but I really want at least one ready for Christmas so maybe one quilted later, and one not! Also, there's enough fabric for two double sided covers or four with a plain backing. My mental jury is still out.
