ABSTRACT:
A mattress covering in the form of a fitted mattress pad or fitted sheet has a top portion, an inelastic side skirt extending perpendicularly from the top portion, an elastic underskirt extending from the side skirt and a separate elastic strand attached to the elastic skirt at its open outer periphery. The top portion is dimensioned to fit a standard size mattress and the side skirt and underskirt are dimensioned to fit a range of mattress heights. The side skirt can be made of the same quilted or sheet material as the top portion for attractive appearance, or it can be made of other material, such as a single layer of an inelastic nonwoven, inexpensive sheet, to minimize cost. The elastic underskirt can be made of three layer material having a pair of inelastic outer layers gathered by and bonded to an elastic inner layer, or elastic thread stitched or woven into an inelastic fabric layer.
