ABSTRACT:
An article of bedding, such as a bedsheet, bedspread, blanket, or the like, provides additional fabric for a user's feet by means of a pleat formed by a pair of oppositely-folded parallel folds extending across the width of the article. In preferred embodiments, the folds of material forming the pleat are seamed together only at the ends of the pleat so that the medial parts of the pleat can unfold during use. The seams will hold the pleat in place so that when the bed is unoccupied, the folds will lie flat, especially if pressed. The seams may be arranged to coincide with the upper edge of the mattress and, between the seams and the side edges of the mattress, fabric equivalent to two of the three layers of the pleat may be removed to give a flat valance portion.
