Shams are covers for bed pillows, or bed sized pillows, Euro, King, Queen, Standard Full size. Faces are pattern matched and centered. The standard option is made with envelope backs. Although this simple overlap on the back for pillow insertion is standard, a zipper is also a convenient option. Your shams are then reversible. Another simple option, your shams can be filled and machine closed. A coordinating fabric can be used on the back if desired. The basic style is knife edge, to that you may add, welting, ¼”, ½”, 1”, rope, fringe, or gimp trim. Ruffled, single or double rows. Ruffles are shirred to 300% fullness and are Self Lined. Flanged, filled or unfilled, with mitered corners. (
Non mitered corners are only available if there is no welt or fringe between the base and the flange.) Banding or Shirred Banding are also options. The fronts may be quilted to match the bed cover, or a pattern of your choice.
Let us fill your pillow shams. Each pillow insert contains a standardized amount of precisely measured fill to ensure consistency. Our fill is a special blend of highly resilient polyester fiber, selected for its optimal shape retention, softness and durability. Down inserts are also available in a variety of down / feather blends. We can provide all sizes of custom blown inserts with your choice of - poly, down, synthetic down, or our own unique poly-down blend. You can also provide your own inserts - we would like to have them to custom fit the covers, or we can make them to your specifications. (
Typically inserts are a few inches bigger than the covers.)
Custom styles and sizes are available. You can design your own custom sham, and we will provide you with a quote for the yardage & cost to fabricate.
Width and height dimensions are from seam to seam, not including flange, ruffle, welt, etc.
While some manufactures don’t bother with such painstaking measures, we believe small details make a big difference.
