Beautiful, soft and elegant.  The cover itself stays on well with the strap, which is mostly hidden by the top of the cover going over it.  It also hasn't slid or needed to be adjusted on the couch much at all - though my sofa and loveseat are slightly smaller than the average, so I'm able to tuck in the sides and back of this quite a bit.  The blue color is a soft "mineral blue" - sort of a soft periwinkle I guess, and matches my sofa well.  The texture is very soft to the touch, and a pleasure to sit or lay against.  I love the pattern on the quilt which is different than for most in this price range, and adds a touch of elegance to it.
