I ordered two sets of these to put on our seat cushions and the back cushions for our patio furniture. I put our cushions in with their original coverings and had no problems, fit perfectly and are very pretty. I read where one reviewer was not happy about fade but I expect fade usually because I am in the South and my furniture is in direct afternoon sun but for the price...these are an excellent bargain. If they fade, we will just buy new ones next summer. I recommend these, this pattern is lovely and the colors are vibrant and unique. Very pretty.UPDATE: I left my 5 stars because I still love these covers and think they are very pretty and a good buy for the money. However, one thing I noticed when I got them, I ordered two sets and the fabric of one set seemed silkier or softer, the other more canvas like but not quite as rough as canvas. The silkier ones have maintained their color, no fade at all...the canvas type ones have faded quite a bit.
