One question tho...if my covers are 12x12...how do I measure the same for the pillow forms this way..the covers are 12x12 laying flat while the pillow form that is made is arched and full...makes them think that if I measure 12x12 over the fullness...it'd be bigger than the 12x12 laying flat.....so how do you measure the form to be 12x12?
