Great but has it's flaws., February 19, 2012

I received one of these - per my own request for Christmas. I ordered this one to cover another piece in my living room.
I LOVE the print but my problem is fit. The problem is it barely covers from top of couch to floor. Doesn't tuck behind the top well (And I have an average couch not overstuffed).
