However, I did get tired of the white box spring always peeking out underneath the quilt. So, I decided to make a bed skirt to cover it up. I bought some lovely red fabric that coordinated beautifully with the red accent wall in my fall colored bedroom. Then my idea evolved to making an elastic-edged band (sort of like part of a fitted sheet, only with elastic on both edges). The result is pictured above.
I'm very pleased with how it turned out and even imagined that my bed felt a little different when I got into it last night because it was more attractively dressed. The only problem, in fact, was that as I was sewing happily, I realized that I could have simply gotten an extra fitted sheet, put it onto the box spring, and saved myself a bit of work. I'll keep that in mind in case I ever change my room colors...
