I really love these pillows. Before purchasing them I had never been that interested in extra pillows on the sofa. But I was having some special company coming for the holidays last year and wanted to spruce up the house. They looked so pretty in the picture and the price was almost unbelievable so I took a chance and bought two.  Boy do they ever look nice on the sofa! The blue was almost a perfect match. I only use them during the holiday season.
