These pillow covers were well-constructed of beautiful fabric. My husband keeps commenting on how much he likes them.

The weave and colors are just lovely but I had to use a 12 by 12 pillow insert rather than 18 by 18. I tried to get the pillow in but the buttons popped off when I closed it so I gave up and used the smaller insert. They do look really good on my couch though.

Very pleased with my Pillow Cases. The weaving is of a high quality. The colors are bright and beautiful. The fabric has a metallic thread running through it which I was not expecting. The pillow cases match the Duvet Cover I purchased of the same material and look wonderful in my guest bedroom.

Really beautiful and well made. I do have two major complaints. One, a duvet cover should include straps sewn in each corner to keep the cover and the insert in place. This one does not. Two, the fabric has metallic accents. This is not included in the description and is not evident in the online photos. I would have preferred no metallic accent, however it is not a deal breaker. We have traveled many times to Guatemala and our guest room is being decorated with the many craft items we picked up in our travels. I was looking for a cover that would harmonize with the Coban Huipile that I use as a wall hanging. Jaspe is one of my favorite Guatemalan fabrics and the weaving in this Duvet Cover is of an exceptional quality. The pattern of the weaving coordinates beautifully with the blues, yellows and pinks on my Huipile. I could not have asked for a better color match.

I bought 2 of these cushion covers and liked them so much I bought 2 more. The covers are beautifully made. The fabric is lovely and the colours vibrant. I particularly like the covers close with buttons not zippers. Very nice idea. The cushions are perfect with the yellow Zapotec bedspread I bought from Sra. Ruiz. Muchas gracias to La Orquideas Weavers.
