I agree that it's a beautiful mix-up. Adds just the right separation between bed and pillow. I have found many times if I didn't tell my mistake no one but me sees it. I think (for me) sometimes we try to follow the rules too closely and loose our creativity.

Me too. Thanks for sharing.

What a beautiful set! I love the way the shams aren't matchy/matchy :D:D:D

lovely quilt and my colors too.

I like the contrast, it all looks good :thumbup:

Beautifully done. I actually think the shams are better this way. If they were the same blocks, it would all just blend in. This way, they compliment the quilt and stand nicely on their own at the same time.

Beautiful quilt. I really like the contrast
