Abstract
A clip and method of using same to facilitate the positioning of a cover of the typical rectangular bag-like type over a typical rectangular bedding item such as a blanket, quilt, comforter or the like. The clip is formed with two opposed selectively engageable jaws dimensioned to permit engagement of the corners of the bedding item and cover therebetween. The clip is formed with a padded cover overlying the outside surfaces of the clip. In use, the cover typically formed with a closed end and an open end is turned inside out and positioned so that the closed corners of the inside out bag lie adjacent the corners of the bedding item. These adjacent corners of the cover and bedding item are then clipped together using one clip at each corner. The cover is then drawn over the bedding item to turn the cover right side out and simultaneously enclose the bedding item. The free corners of the cover and bedding item may if desired be clipped together, preferably within the cover.
