Ah, Suze posted a picture of the fabric!

The pattern is using the colored dots to coordinate with the colors of the Tumbling Blocks. The rest of the fabric (the "lemur" part) is simply another black-and-white fabric to go along with the other black-and-whites.

The dots of a particular color are printed lengthwise, so there is a great swath of reds, yellows, blues, greens, and purples cascading down the fabric. They aren't printed regularly, like the polka dots, so when you use one specific dot, you may be sacrificing its neighbor.
