Love my sham matches my bedroom perfectly

As other posters have noted, this sham is very soft and has a pleasant design. Note, the color is a gray-blue not powder blue as it appears in the photo. I decided to keep it because it still works with my comforter set. The opening in the back is a zipper and not the normal flap insert. The zipper takes up a lot of space from the edges so it is very difficult to get a king-size pillow in and out easily. For that reason and color mismatch, I have removed one star.

These shams are supremely soft and the texture is nice. I use them instead of a pillowcase....

Pretty soft and the raised pattern is not uncomfortable while sleeping
