These pillow covers are beautiful. The material is very soft, with the print on one side and the pattern on the other. The zippered opening seems very sturdy. I am so thrilled with the deep navy color. The only thing to make them better would have been including the inserts. When I ordered I didn’t realize that the inserts were not included. I did have 3 inserts to use, so I will just switch out the covers periodically. Love them!
