Abstract
A bed skirt construction is formed from a singular fabric panel. The fabric panel comprises a top edge and opposed sets of opposed corner edging extending from the top edge into the width. The sets of opposed corner edging are respectively fastened together for forming corner seams, which seams bound opposed upper side panel portions from an upper foot panel portion. The seams terminate at a pair of corner vertices having a foot panel crease extending therebetween for bounding the upper foot panel portion from a lower foot panel portion. First and second side panel creases extend from the corner vertices orthogonal to the foot panel crease for bounding upper and lower side panel portions. Mitered corner joints, pleats, and a cap assembly together function to enhance positioned placement of the bed skirt construction upon the box spring.
