Abstract:
1. A bed skirt construction for use with a bed having a mattress and a box spring, the bed skirt construction comprising: a fabric panel of predetermined length and width, the fabric panel comprising a top edge and pair of cutouts extending into the width from the top edge, each cutout defining a vertex and obliquely opposed edges extending from the vertex to the top edge, the respective obliquely opposed edges being fastened together at corner seams for forming opposed upper side panel portions and an upper foot panel portion extending intermediate the upper side panel portions, the corner seams each having a top edge terminus and a panel width terminus, the panel width termini forming a pair of corner vertices with a foot panel line extending therebetween, the foot panel line separating the upper foot panel portion from a lower foot panel portion, first and second side panel lines extending from the corner vertices orthogonal to the foot panel line and parallel to the top edge for separating the upper side panel portions from a pair of lower side panel portions, a pair of mitered joints extending in the interface plane in spaced relation to the corner vertices, each mitered joint comprising a side panel extension and a foot panel extension, the side panel extensions respectively extending parallel to the side panel lines, and the foot panel extensions extending parallel to the foot panel line, the side panel and foot panel extensions being right trapezoidal in form, and thus having one oblique side or edge at said corner seams, the mitered joints for maintaining orthogonality at the corner vertices and enhancing positioned placement of the bed skirt construction atop a box spring, the bed skirt construction being outfittable upon the box spring such that the lower side panel portions conceal side portions of the box spring, and the lower foot panel portion conceals a foot portion of the box spring, the upper side and foot panel portions thus for extending in a mattress-to-spring interface plane in superior adjacency to the box spring.
