Default Shams

Hello! Remember the Civil War top I finished a couple weeks ago? Well, I added another row, before quilting and also made and quilted these King Shams. I cut 3,333 two and one half inch squares for the top and shams! The quilt and shams are reversible, since I put a zipper on one end of each sham. Two looks for the price of one😃
They may look odd on this bed, because it is a queen bed with an extra full size mattress placed on top. When we had a hurricane we used a full mattress on the floor for people to sleep and once they went back home we just found it easier to place on top of this unused Queen bed, rather than bringing back to storage. No one sleeps in this room, especially since Covid.

I'll never forget it - I bought BlockBase+ just to get that block you used! 😄

I love your shams as much as the quilt! And reversible - how wonderful!

You did a beautiful job with these - I feel like you really loved what you were doing. As if you've become a CW repro fanatic in this process.
