Suggestions to Make Bed Skirt For Low Profile Box Spring
- When you plan to make a bed skirt for low profile box spring, you have to measure from the floor to the top edge of your box spring. You can do this by using a measuring tape for determining the drop or the height the skirt is going to have.
- Also, measure the circumference of the bed simply by measuring around the bed. This way you will be able to determine how long the fabric has to be in order to cover the total circumference of the bed.
- You have to add three inches to the number that you have measured as the drop. This extra material is going to create a pocket for the elastic. You have to cut the fabric to ensure the height. Cut the required number of pieces equal to the circumference plus 4 inches.
- These four extra inches is going to give you extra sewing fabric. Thereafter, you have to multiply its circumference by two in case you want to make a ruffled bed skirt for low profile box spring. You will need twice as much fabric to get the ruffled look.
- Sew the fabric pieces together till you have a long piece of fabric. Fold the top of your fabric over the back, for creating a pocket so that the elastic goes through. Cut the elastic about 3-4 inches shorter than the bed’s circumference. Use 0.50-0.75 inch elastic. Thinner elastic might be pulled off the bed with the weight of the fabric. Make sure that you insert elastic all the way through the pocket by using a safety pin.
- Sew the ends of the elastic together. Place the bed skirt for low profile box spring over it to check if it is fitting properly. If it is not tight enough then cut off more elastic and also sew the ends again to get a tighter fit. Make sure that you do not sew up the pocket until you have the fit that you want.
- Sew the pockets together. Fold the fabric in half, the outer portion facing in, sew the ends of the fabric together. This will help in making sure that the finished seam is on the inner portion of the bed skirt underneath where no one will be able to see it. Align the bed skirt around box spring.
