Whether you sew bedding yourself or buy ready-made, according to this table it will be convenient to navigate in size.
Today, bed linen is produced in different sets and sizes, so it’s sometimes easy to get confused. There are basic well-known designations, for example, a half bed, double or family. But even within each such category there are no strictly enforced parameters. We tried to collect in the table different options with possible sizes and equipment. The table will also help when sewing bedding with your own hands - although in this case, of course, it is worth focusing primarily on the parameters of your bed and the size and set of pillows and blankets.
