Elasticized bed ruffle How to????


 

Hi,
I am making a quilt (my very first) and I would like to add a bed
ruffle with elastic to eliminate the need to lift heavy mattress. Does
anyone know how to make one? I have an idea but I would like to know if
I need to buy especial kind of elastic?

Thanks

I think any elastic will work, but you will need some special pins to hold
the ruffle to the box springs. The pins look like a plastic bar with a pin
protruding on each end.

You can use heavy duty velcro to hold it on. If you use velcro you can
have a pleated or tailored bedskirt. The sticky velcro works on the
box springs and you don't have to pin the skirt.
