Blanket Rug Summer

so i have this really big cherry red chenille throw rug for our bed, to use as a duvet in the summer. i wanna get some nice pillow cases to go with it, but im not sure which way to go in terms of colours/patterns..
i know red would go well.. but yeh, im thinking like, diff textures as well as colours too.
wat do u think would look good?

here is a link to give a sort of example of the texture of the rug
