Abstract
A bedding cover is described for use on a bed. The cover has a flap positioned at its center, and extends laterally from one side to the other. The flap may be folded to cover one or the other ends of the cover, and is large enough to fully cover the selected end. The flap has the bedding pattern of one end of the cover on one side and of the other end of the cover on the other side so that when it is folded to cover the first side, the entire surface of the cover presents a uniform appearance, and when it is folded to cover the other side, the entire surface of the cover presents a uniform appearance also, but of a selected different design or color, etc. In a second embodiment, the reverse side of the cover may be constructed to provide a third and a fourth appearance when the cover is turned over.
Claims2
Bedding comprising:
- a first sheet having a first sheet top side surface and a first sheet bottom side surface, the first sheet top side surface presenting a first decorative indicia thereon, the first sheet including a first rectangular base portion and contiguous thereto, a first rectangular hinged portion, the base and hinged portions being of approximately equal size;
- a second sheet having a second sheet top side surface and a second sheet bottom side surface, the second sheet top side surface presenting a second decorative indicia thereon, the second sheet including a second rectangular base portion and contiguous thereto, a second rectangular hinged portion, the second base and hinged portions being of approximately equal size;
- the first and second hinged portions corresponding in size and shape, the bottom side, surfaces thereof being sewn together as an integral hinge element having a common distal free edge, the first and second sheets being joined along linear intersections between the base and the hinged portions of the sheets to establish a pair of opposing distal base portions free edges thereof;
- the hinge element providing, along the hinge element distal free edge, a means for attaching the hinge portion distal free edge to a means for receiving at either one of the base portions free edges, the hinge element fully covering the base portion upon which it is folded onto.

Bedding comprising:
- a first sheet having a first sheet top side surface and a first sheet bottom side surface, the first sheet top side surface presenting a first decorative indicia thereon, the first sheet including a first rectangular base portion and contiguous thereto, a first rectangular hinged portion;
- a second sheet having a second sheet top side surface and a second sheet bottom side surface, the second sheet top side surface presenting a second decorative indicia thereon, the second sheet including a second rectangular base portion and contiguous thereto, a second rectangular hinged portion;
- the first and second hinged portions corresponding in size and shape, the bottom side surfaces thereof being sewn together as an integral upper hinge element having a common distal free edge, the first and second sheets being joined along linear intersections between the base and the hinged portions of the sheets to establish a pair of upper opposing distal base portions free edges thereof;
- the hinge element providing, along the hinge element distal free edge, a means for attaching the hinge portion distal free edge to a means for receiving at either one of the base portions free edges;
- a third sheet having a third sheet top side surface and a third sheet bottom side surface, the third sheet top side surface presenting a third decorative indicia thereon, the third sheet including a third rectangular base portion and contiguous thereto, a third rectangular hinged portion;
- a fourth sheet having a fourth sheet top side surface and a fourth sheet bottom side surface, the fourth sheet top side surface presenting a fourth decorative indicia thereon, the fourth sheet including a fourth rectangular base portion and contiguous thereto, a fourth rectangular hinged portion;
- the third and fourth hinged portions corresponding in size and shape, the bottom side surfaces thereof being sewn together as an integral lower hinge element having a common distal free edge, the third and fourth sheets being joined along linear intersections between the base and the hinged portions of the sheets to establish a pair of lower opposing distal base portions free edges thereof;
- the lower hinge element providing, along the lower hinge element distal free edge, a means for attaching the lower hinge portion distal free edge to a means for receiving at either one of the lower base portions free edges;
- the first and third, and the second and fourth bottom side surfaces being joined respectively to form an integral common sheet.
