I bought some lovely fleece blankets from ebay. BUT be careful of fleece as it can also go out of shape when pulled a bit. Your going to be sitting on these will these not be going out of shape when sat on & moving around on. Like making a bulge where you bum gone and you have wriggled around a bit after a few getting down/up sort of thing. The cheap fleece I got  that went out of shape but then I dont care as if it is really cold it is the one I wrap around myself before I get under the opened out to a duvet sleeping bag. I bought the others from ebay after when I got home from the first hols, Used them on the second later last year,They looked great, kind of a light petrol blue. As our beds are permanently made and on show they make it look plush inside.But I did notice the fleece will sag sitting on it.

Might be just mine. Hope yours turns out great like our others as they act as throws

I have just covered our caravan seats with fleece bought from our local remainant shop, 72ins wide, £4 a mtr. it has that little bit of stretch in it and gives well to form a nice snug fit, I have made loose covers with it, using newspaper templates taken of the originals and fastened with extra long furnishing zips that this little place also sells. The whole set including zips and cotton cost me just a few pence over £30, but price will of course depend on cost of fabric used.

The little remainant shop is based at Heage in Derbyshire if anyone is ever visiting the area. The fleece comes in about 8 different colours including pastels, and wears well as i have used it before to cover things around the house.

They are very nice they had beige , aqua, red and a burgundy colour.
