Best Answer

From Bed Bath and Beyond website:

STANDARD OR KING SHAM: These rectangular beauties can make a bed. (No, they won't tidy it up for you in the morning, but they can certainly enhance its look.) Standard shams are the most common and are usually 20" x 26", while king shams are 20" x 36". Frequently they are made specifically to match a bedding pattern, making it a superb way to maintain a uniform appearance.

EUROPEAN SHAM: They may not be as worldly or exotic as the name indicates, but they will most certainly help create an inviting bed. These square pillow coverings usually measure 26" x 26" and fit over European pillows. Many bedding patterns offer this size sham to coordinate with them. When used with standard shams, they create a stellar ensemble.

How do you make a square euro pillow?

European, or Euro, shams are fairly large, square pillows that are good for leaning against in bed. They can also be used as decorative accent pillows. Most Euro shams measure 26 inches square. However, since it can be difficult to find pillow forms in this size, you may want to make your own Euro shams slightly smaller or larger. To make the Euro pillow sham, you can use thick home decor fabrics or regular cotton fabric. You may want the Euro shams to match your bedspread as closely as possible, or you may want to use a contrasting color to make the Euro pillow shams stand out. # Step 1 # Cut a piece of fabric for the front of the Euro sham that is 27 inches square, or one inch larger than the height and width of the pillow. # Step 2 For the back of the Euro sham, cut two pieces of fabric, each 27 inches wide by 15 1/2 inches tall, or the same width as the front piece and half the height plus 2 inches. # Step 3 On each of the back pieces, fold one long edge of fabric over 1/4 inch toward the wrong side of the fabric, then fold the edge over again another 1/4 inch. Press the folds flat, then stitch along each fold using matching thread. # Step 4 Lay the front piece of the Euro sham fabric right side up. # Step 5 Place the two back pieces of the Euro sham fabric right side down on top of the front piece, with the hemmed edges overlapping each other. Line up the front and back Euro sham pieces along the edges. # Step 6 Pin the pieces of fabric together, then stitch them together along all four sides using 1/4-inch seam allowance. # Step 7 Turn the Euro pillow sham right side out. Insert the pillow form through the opening in the back of the Euro sham. # == #* Pillow form (26 by 26 inches) #* 3/4 yard of fabric #* Matching thread #* Scissors #* Iron #* Ironing board #* Straight pins #* Sewing machine
