"Bed-in-a-bag" refers to a complete bedding set all bound up in 1 pkg. It usually contains the bedspread or comforter, pillow shams, bedskirt (dust ruffle), flat sheet, fitted sheet & pillowcases - all in coordinating fabrics.

Good Luck

Oh man, I didn't realize there were 1200tc's!!! I might have to look into those, white sales are comin' next month. I've got a 900tc on the bed now & just LOVE 'em. So soft & they seem to get softer w/each wash.

My wife buys a comforter and set from any store that has the material and pattern she wants. Then she cuts, trims and sews to make it fit. She sews pockets on sheets and attached the top and bottom sheets to be one piece. Makes making the bed much easier, plus it is a custom fit.

The skirt in the bag becomes curtains or other trim.

I'm going to make a cover for my bunk bed that didn't come with one - got the fabric to coordinate at Joann's and will sew the fitted corner for 2 corners (the far corners are just too hard to worry with) and hem all around.

Mine didn't like some of ours so I let her go wild. I'm color blind anyway.

If it's not so bad, does a guy actually see it?

Don't get me wrong, I don't care about the decor as much as I care about having to hear my wife complain about it E-V-E-R-Y time we go out.

I'm colorblind too.
