ORIGINAL: FelinePersuasion Is there any reason why someone couldn't take like two twin sheets that are awsome, but to small for your needs and sew them together to make a super sized sheet? What about with thin ish baby quilts? like meaning would it be short sheeted feel funny look odd not sew up properly,or be to thick. Any practicality issues.:) Two twins make a double/full size, sewn lengthwise. There are no considerations other than trying to get the seams to lie flat. If they are fitted, you'd have to remove the edging on the midpoints and flatten out the corners...perhaps cut some off. Be sure to use an overlocking stitch on the midpoint seam, b/c there will probably be a lot of pressure in that area.:) You could always just get great baby flannelette, etc. at a fabric store and make your own. If you don't feel confident making the fitted sheets, you could use those elasticy clasps used to keep corners tight...do you know what I mean? They grip on with garter type clasps.
