I used to have a few extra pillows in Pillow Shams on my bed. Made the room look really nice/bed too. We tossed them out of the way on the floor when we went to bed. Until....

One night I got up to use the bathroom and they must have fallen from where they were stacked on the floor. I fell flat on my face when I tripped over them, hitting the dresser on the way down. I think that was the last time we had extra pillows on our bed.

I have to admit, it was much quicker and easier to make the bed in the morning, without having to pick up the extra pillows and arrange them. Now, I just fold down the quilt, leaving a few inches under the pillows and then fold the extra back up over them. I always make my quilts, when making bed sized quilts, the size of what a bedspread would be. My quilts hang down almost to the floor and they are long enough to hang down that way off the end of the bed. And the quilt is also long enough to cover the pillows with tucking in a nice pleat under them.
