What are the small pillowcases in my sofa box? Is something missing?
Also asked as:What are the 2 square fabrics with zippers?Two little zippered bags in the same material?
Two small squares of fabric, zipped and empty, at the bottom of the box. Nothing was forgotten. They were added.
SaveThe quick answer
Nothing is missing: the small zippered pillowcases in your box are a free gift. Floor sofa orders have usually included two, often in the sofa's fabric, and they arrive without inserts. The covers measure 14 x 14 in (36 x 36 cm), so a 14 x 14 in insert fits. Some orders have also included a pet bed or another small extra.

Measure once, slowly. Write the numbers here. The workshop will go over them with you. — Hana
Leave your details and the workshop will call you to confirm measurements, fabric, foam and piping. No prices, dates or payment on this page: it is a request, not an order.
Why they arrive empty
The covers are the gift. The filling is yours to choose. A pillow insert of 14 x 14 in (36 x 36 cm) fills them.
The gift squares are often cut from the sofa's own fabric. Not always. The workshop says plainly that a pair may come in a color that does not match the sofa. With a gift, that can happen.
If you want more of them
Extra pillowcases can be purchased. For a set that matches the modular floor sofa exactly, ask for them by fabric code rather than relying on the gift pair. The pillow cover studio is a quiet place to try sizes first.
Where will the two small pillows go? On the sofa, or on a chair by the window?
A small pillow asks little of a room. It fills one corner. A gift can simply be a gift.
Two small zippered pillowcases in a floor sofa box are a free gift, not a missing piece; they measure 14 x 14 in and come without inserts.

Can I buy more pillowcases like the gift pair?
Yes, extra pillowcases can be purchased. Give the size, such as 14 x 14 in (36 x 36 cm), and the fabric code you want, and the workshop will quote them.
Does every floor sofa order come with a gift?
