Abstract
A covering module is formed of a pair of sheets of flexible material superposed and connected along adjacent marginal edges, leaving at least one opening, and a strip of flexible material is connected to the marginal edges of one of the sheets with the sheets being turned inside out. Stuffing material is then inserted through the opening into the interior of the module, and connection of the sheets and strip at a location interior of the marginal edges thereby closes the opening. Fasteners are attached to the marginal edges to permit detachable connection of the modules to form quilts, sleeping bags, window, wall ceiling or floor coverings, and the like.
Claims15
A covering module comprising:
- a pair of similarly shaped sheets of flexible material connected together in face-to-face relationship at a first location along adjacent marginal edges to form a pillow-like body, a strip of flexible material having an outer marginal edge connected in face-to-face relationship to at least one of said sheets adjacent said marginal edges thereof, said marginal edges and said outer marginal edge of said strip being folded back between said sheets toward a center of said body, said folded back marginal edges of said sheets and said folded back outer marginal edge of said strip being connected together in face-to-face relationship to said sheets at a second location closer to said center of said body than said first location, said sheets and said strip being connected together in face-to-face relationship at a third location closer to said center of said body than said second location.
A covering module comprising:
- a pair of similarly shaped sheets of flexible material stitched together in face-to-face relationship at a first location along adjacent marginal edges to form a pillow-like body, a strip of flexible material having an outer marginal edge stitched in face-to-face relationship to at least one of said sheets at said first location, said marginal edges and said outer marginal edge of said strip being folded back between said sheets toward a center of said body, said folded back marginal edges of said sheets and said folded back outer marginal edge of said strip being stitched together in face-to-face relationship to said sheets at a second location closer to said center of said body than said first location, said stitching at said second location being exposed, stuffing positioned between said sheets in said center of said body, said sheets and said strip being stitched together in face-to-face relationship at a third location closer to said center of said body than said second location and adjacent said stuffing to retain said stuffing in said center of said body.
