Artistic skill of housekeeper can be executed in bed making procedures.

Bed sheets

The bed sheets have a good quality with a slight luster and made from non crease fabric so as to retain its appearance. For comfort, the texture should be soft and smooth, absorbent and free from state. More frequently used are polyester and terry cot. Bed sheet should be large enough to be tucked in securely all around the mattress. A width cutting length of fabric for the bed sheet is approximately 8 meters. Normally for the single bed of 85 X190 cms a single sheet should be 177 X274 cm, for double sheet be 238 X 274 cm

Pillow & Pillowcases.

An ideal pillow should be neither too soft nor too hard, while selecting pillows, the house keeper must test their comfort and the longevity. With proper care, good quality may last for two years. The uses of pillow covers can double the life of the pillow .The usual size is 48X73 cm

Pillowcases are generally made from the same fabric as that of the bed curtain. The longer bag type which is folded in at the open end. In order to calculate the amount of material required to stitch a pillowcase, it is necessary to measure the circumference of the pillow and add on 2 to 4 inches to allow for shrinkage and perfect fit.

Bolsters

Bolsters are elongated pillow which stretch the width of the bed. They form an under pillow and as the head does not rest on them directly. They have a gone out of fashion and now days a guest is normally given two pillows on the bed.

Blankets

These need to adhere to the body in order to provide warmth .In order to be comfortable, they should be smooth, soft and resilient and not too heavy. Wool is often blended with a synthetic fibre, a less durable alternative is made from nylon fibres, it is suitable for those who are allergic to wool. Electric blankets are uncommon in Indian and are difficult to maintain and anchor to prevent pilferage.

Duvets/quilts

It is increasingly popular in modern hotels and are fast replacing the blanket, especially on double beds. They consist of a filling sandwiched or stitched in a fabric case with a changeable cover. The fillers may be feathers of the birds or synthetic fibers. Many hotels use duvet with its cover as a bed spread, in which case a bottom sheet, pillow and duvet with cover are all that are needed to make a bed. Duvets are three times lighter than the combined weight of all the curtain that covers a guest in conventional bed making.

Eiderdowns are exclusive quilts filled with down feathers from the eider duck which make them very expensive, nowadays cheaper imitations made with synthetic fibres are now available. Quilts are generally placed under the fold of the top sheet keep them clean and avoid stains, they provide a warm but lightweight covering. The warmth duvet is rated in „togs „, the average duvet having a rating of 10.5 togs and the warmer ones having a higher tog 11and 14 whereas the polyester fiber filled duvet have a tog between 8 and 11
