i want to make my own duvet covers and bed linens. what is the most luxurious fabric i could use?

seamstress is correct. The only problem you will have is the seams. Unless you use the sheets, all the linens will have at least 2 seams, if not three

r/nursing - What time do you normally change the patients bed linen (inpatient)?

As my name states, I manage linen for a number of hospitals and I am finding that patients who are scheduled for discharge are having their beds changed on the same day, sometimes an hour or two before they leave. I know that a lot of things can interfere with discharges and timing, but is there any major reason why bed changes could not be moved to the afternoon instead of the morning? Would it interfere with too many other things? I know some of my units give baths later in the day, why not do the change while they take a bath or before they return to the bed? It sounds like a simple solution from my end to avoid those people who are getting discharged prior to say 2pm, but I am willing to bet there are other complications that I am completely unaware of which might make this a really dumb idea. Just wanted some outside input before I go make myself look like an idiot to the staff :) Thanks. EDIT: I should clarify that my job is to save the hospital money on linen and make the units more efficient with their linen use.

Bed Linen Buying Guide

What Types of Sheets Are There? Fitted Sheets This covers your mattress and should be deep enough to fit securely over it and stay in place as you sleep. Flat Sheets Can be used as a top sheet for warmer months or to fold over the duvet for decoration. Duvet Cover Your duvet or comforter should fit snugly inside a duvet cover which can be removed and washed when needed. It also allows you to change your style as often as you want. Bedspread A single layer bed topper that should cover the entire bed down to the floor and the pillowcase too. They tend to be lightweight so can be a good alternative to a duvet during summer months and as an extra layer when it gets chilly.

HOW TO CHOOSE BED LINEN

Are you planning to buy some new bedding but just do not know what - or how - to choose? Fabrics, washing instructions, sizes. here are a few tips from Gautier to help you make the right choice. Bed linen comes in a wide range of fabrics, including cotton, linen, polycotton, blends, polyester microfibre and bamboo viscose. Cotton is the most common fabric and also comes in a number of different finishes: Percale: this closely woven fine cotton looks almost like satin and is very soft to the touch. This is the most comfortable, high-quality fabric for bed linen. Satin: this is also a closely woven fabric that is used for quality bed linen. It is also very supple and warm in winter. Some people love the glossiness of satin, others hate it - it's all a matter of taste. Cotton jersey: soft, cosy and stretchy, jersey is often used for fitted sheets because it takes on the shape of the mattress. Flannel: with its fleecy feel, this fabric is popular in the long, cold nights of autumn and winter because it is so warm and cosy. Linen: this natural material is pleasantly cool in summer and cosily warm in winter. Linen ages well and is very tough. In order to make the right choice, it's a good idea to actually see and touch the fabrics in order to fully appreciate them and compare their quality. Matching or mismatching, white, striped, exotic, with or without patterns, colourful, themed, chic, neutral. tastes and colours vary wildly, but here are a few tips to remember when choosing colours: Neutral, softer colours will age better. For example, white is not affected by fashion and you will tire of it less quickly. If you are not sure, remember that you can choose your bed linen based on the colour scheme of your bedroom decor, furniture, curtains or other accessories. We are used to seeing bedrooms with matching fabrics, but it is currently fashionable to mix colours and materials. Mismatched cushions, pillowcases that are very different from the duvet cover, different fabrics for the fitted sheet and top sheet - are you brave enough? It is advisable to change your bed linen every two weeks. The body releases sweat during the night, which can encourage the proliferation of dust mites. It is important to air the sheets every day, but this is not enough to prevent them. And finally, what size should you choose? Here is a summary of bed dimensions and corresponding bed linen sizes. For a queen size bed (160 x 190 cm): duvet cover 240 x 220 or 260 x 240 cm, sheet 240 x 300/310 cm or 270 x 301 cm, fitted sheet 160 x 200 cm.
