That would never happen here :( I actually kind of like the ticking on the sectional but I know it doesn't go with your overall plan. White slips will be great. I had white slips on a sofa and two wing chairs a few ago and I loved that I could toss them in the washing machine.

I saw one recently that came down over the top and at the corners were inverted pleats lined in a contrasting color. A finishing touch was a small belt of the dominate material across the corner pleat loosely holding it closed but not quite. The belt was maybe one inch wide and maybe 4 or 5 inches in length and it buttoned at its ends. Your dears look really good.
