Sorry I can't help. I bought boudoir-sized and they are great. Just the right size.

I think I used 28 x 28 pillows, but the border on these is still kind of "floppy". I'm not sure starch would help, really. The fabric is so soft I'm not sure you could get it stiff enough to stand enough. Good luck!

Wash sheets with warm/cold water. Tumble dry. They are amazing. Only issue I have seen is that I have a large pillow top and sheets become untucked. If I had a do over I would of got a size up.

Don't know. My shams are 27 x 27 and the pillows fill them up. You might need something a litter smaller. And remember if you decide to try them, you can always return them. Hope this helps.

Standard size. I ordered the KING but the shams are still standard. I use several throw pillows so it's not really noticable...

The shams I have with my king size Star Patch Quilt are for a regular size pillow. Three across are a percect fit for a king size bed. Love this quilt!

I can tell you that I found the queen size not too small and not too big. And I don't have a tiny head. But, a king would have been just fine for me as well. I would have liked it just as much I'm sure. I bought a queen for the lesser price and I figured I didn't need queen, but I would not have said no to a king. It will be a lot of pillow though based on the queen size.

I ordered the Full/Queen size and the shams held a standard size pillow. Hope that helps.

I bought the full for an antique bed with a tall mattress. It fits the bed perfectly. You can get pillow forms to fit the 26x26 Euro shams that come with it from Penney's, Overstock.com, and various other places. Look for Penney's coupon on their website, and they might be available in store.

Ordered the one from Beans72. Why? These pillows are "packed" with beans & are very thick, thus the need for a larger case. Also laundering regular pillow cases make them smaller than you need for these great pillows.

28x28, but I used them in my standard Euro shams, which stated they were 26x26. As the other reviewer said, this makes them very full and fluffy. Glad I bought these slightly larger than standard size. They are wonderful.

Hi! Looked at several different websites and could only find pillow inserts measuring 18 x 24 in. Amazon has some 18 x 24 but they don't look that great and are not available with Prime shipping. The nicest ones I saw were on a website called Downlite. Their down alternative, which is my favorite, is $25.00 per pillow and the luxury down alternative is $35.00 per pillow. Their customer service # is 1-866-931-3696. Maybe they can tell you if the inserts run a little large or if they have some that might be able to accommodate the extra inch/inch 1/2 of your shams. Sorry I couldn't be more help! Good luck and let me know if you find them! :-)

I washed the shams on delicate and dried them on low. They washed great.(still look new) I haven't washed the comforter yet. I feel like it would wash ok also but its so large I will probably take it to the laundry mat when the time comes.:)

I purchased an XL. It didn't work for me at all. I tried it for 2 nights and then had my husband try it. It didn't work. I just went to my Amazon account and went to the Section for returning something. I printed up a return label, including postage, and sent it back to Amazon. They reimbursed the purchase price. I did buy another one of these pillows, just in a smaller size. It has worked fantastic. My problem is shoulder pain and this pillow allows me to sleep on my side without having any pain. It has really been a miracle pillow for me. But if it doesn't work for you, you can return it and get a full refund. Best of luck! I purchased an XL. It didn't work for me at all.

The dimensions are 20x26 for a standard pillow, that will leave 4 inches of extra material hanging over the side of your pillow. There is a pretty embroidered detail on the pillow case only. This extra four inches will work for a slightly larger pillow. Pillow shams will make up for anything lacking in coverage on your pillow. Enjoy. I love these sheets.

I'm sorry but you didn't buy them from me. But I do recommend throwing them in the dryer on low heat with a dryer sheet. See if that works. the reason why I say you did not buy them from me is because I haven't sold any pillows on Amazon yet. thank you

I took the advise of the first answer (JENZ) and ordered the 28x28 for my Pottery Barn shams. They are perfect. Very full and plump but not over stuffed.

I have these shams and also the coverlet, wash them on delicate with good detergent (ie Woolite or Persil) in a front loader and tumble dry low-- they wash great. I agree, dry cleaning can get very expensive! I also turn them inside out just avoid pulls/tears but they do fine either way . Good luck!
