Quite a challenge....I myself have decided that any bed quilt I now make I will make pillow shams to match rather that the traditional fold over pillows....reason for this is...I purchased from goodwill two lovely heavily quilted gold colored shams( store bought) that I have used on two of my bed quilts....liked the look so,well, have made a set of them for a scrappy nine patch/snowball quilt that I made a long time ago....still had some of the border fabric...phew! Enough for the shams! So that will be what I do from now on....
