The most current dye lot of the actual fabric looks very close to to the first two photos. It is not as indigo colored as photos 3 and 4 and is similar to the left fabric in photo 5. It is not nearly as blue as the last (manufacturers) thumbnail image. The background is a mostly solid white color with a very, very light indigo undertone and watercolor. The color that is mixed into the watercolor areas is between a light purple and a light gray-purple color. Reminds me of a light stormy winter sky. It is about 70% white and 30% light cloudy indigo.
