Abstract
A bedding 100 defining a pocket 102 to fit on top of a bed with negative space to accommodate side sleepers and stomach sleepers by providing a space for the user's arms and shoulders. The pocket 102 is configured to fit inside the negative space of the bed to keep the negative space of the bed clean. For ease of manufacturing, the bedding 100 is made from three separate sheets that are strategically cut and fastened together.
Claims10
A bedding for a bed with negative space, the bedding comprising:
- a) a generally rectangular base sheet comprising a top surface, a bottom surface opposite the top surface, a head edge adjacent to the top surface and the bottom surface, a foot edge opposite the head edge and adjacent to the top surface and the bottom surface, a first side edge adjacent to the head edge, the foot edge, the top surface, and the bottom surface, and a second side edge opposite the first side edge and adjacent to the head edge, the foot edge, the top surface, and the bottom surface;
- b) a second sheet connected to the base sheet at the head edge to form a pocket descending below the bottom surface;
- c) an end sheet connected to the second sheet and the base sheet;
- and
- d) an elastic band connected to the end sheet and the base sheet to form a fitted sheet, wherein the second sheet is rectangular, having a first edge, a second edge opposite the first edge, a third edge adjacent to the first edge and the second edge, and a fourth edge opposite the third edge and adjacent to the first edge and the second edge, wherein the first edge is stitched to the base sheet at a first corner to form a first seam configured for structural integrity at the first corner, the second edge is stitched to the base sheet at a second corner to form a second seam configured for structural integrity at the second corner, the third edge is stitched to the base sheet at a third corner to form a third seam configured for structural integrity at the third corner, and the fourth edge of the second sheet is fastened to the end sheet to form a fourth seam configured for structural integrity at a fourth corner, wherein the pocket defines an inferior sidewall cover, a superior sidewall cover adjacent to the end sheet and opposite the inferior sidewall cover, a first lateral sidewall cover adjacent to the inferior sidewall cover and the superior sidewall cover, a second lateral sidewall cover opposite the first lateral sidewall cover and adjacent to the inferior sidewall cover and the superior sidewall cover, and a floor cover adjacent to the inferior sidewall cover, the superior sidewall cover, the first lateral sidewall cover, and the second lateral sidewall cover.

A method of manufacturing a bedding for a bed with negative space, the bedding comprising a head end;
- a foot end opposite the head end;
- a first side adjacent to the head end and the foot end;
- a second side opposite the first side and adjacent to the head end and the foot end, and a pocket in between the first side and the second side and adjacent to the head end, the method comprising:
- a) providing a base sheet, comprising:
- a top surface, a bottom surface opposite the top surface, a head edge adjacent to the top surface and the bottom surface, a foot edge opposite the head edge and adjacent to the top surface and the bottom surface, a first side edge adjacent to the head edge, the foot edge, the top surface, and the bottom surface, and a second side edge opposite the first side edge and adjacent to the head edge, the foot edge, the top surface, and the bottom surface;
- b) fastening a second sheet to the base sheet to form the pocket that descends below the bottom surface of the base sheet, wherein the second sheet is fastened to the base sheet by stitching a first edge of the second sheet to the base sheet to form a first corner with structural integrity, and stitching a second edge of the second sheet to the base sheet to form a second corner with structural integrity;
- and
- c) fastening an end sheet to the base sheet and the second sheet to form the head end of the bedding, wherein the second sheet is rectangular defined by the first edge, the second edge opposite the first edge, a third edge adjacent to the first edge and the second edge, and a fourth edge opposite the third edge and adjacent to the first edge and the second edge, wherein the second sheet defines a first flap adjacent to the first edge, a second flap adjacent to the second edge, and a middle section in between the first flap and the second flap.
