    Update, I have just completed half my top sheet and have used thin cotton for batting and for the backing, sashing n binding a top sheet from my bedding cupboard, quite pleased with it so far. It is going to be an ideal size as each quarter is 36", which is why I have done it QASG :!:

    Nice "sheet." Love all the purple going on.

    I use one of those reusable ice packs when I get hot during the night. It really cools you down quick if you put it on the back of your neck. Sometimes I take one to bed and change it out during the night for a colder one after the one I've been using gets hot.

    Don't you love old sayings? I was told ladies glow, horses sweat, men fart and women pass gas. If I was ever to say the "small f" word my aunt would have a fit. I've tried to instil that in my kids and they just laugh at me; all of thier friends say the f word.
