- The best part about this project is that you can use bedding you already have and just buy a zipper - or of course you can buy some new sheets and a fleece blanket too! This DIY zipper bedding tutorial will show you the steps to make your own zipper bedding for any size of mattress - including RVs and murphy beds. Here are the pieces I used (except for the fleece - don’t use anything with stretch) in this tutorial:

This was amazing! Just a note to others, prewash everything to account for shrinking, also, if you use the sheet suspenders, it will not move at all!
Thanks, Jennifer! That's great advice! I didn't prewash, but I luckily haven't had issues.
Oh I love this!!!!!!!! Ive wanted beddy’s so bad but with 6 kids that is extremely expensive to buy, making them myself would be a quarter of the cost and this is just so dang cute!!!!!
Thanks, Kaelee! Beddy's are great, but not so much the price.
New Zipit Bedding coming soon and much more affordable than Beddy's! Zipit Bedding is patented too!
You did amazing !! My boys are getting. Bunk beds and this is so much easier I just don’t want to pay 350 for Beddys
I'm right there with ya, girl~
Me either!!
I’m getting ready to get one of my girls a bunkbed and this is the first thing I thought of, and I didn’t want to pay over $100 for one so I thought I’d look in here to see one myself.
Thank you for taking your time to show us this. I just bought an RV and the beds prove very difficult to make. This should be so much better
This would be great for an RV! Have fun picking out fabric!
Thank you so much! I've been looking at something for a while for my kids but it's way to EXPENSIVE!!
Thanks Amy!! Such an awesome tutorial. I truly appreciate the quick and concise explanation. Time for me to get sewing!💕👍
Thank you so much for the feedback! Have fun sewing!
To hold zipper in place u could use zipper tape to stick zipper to sheet instead of pins
Great idea!!
This looks great! Thanks for the tutorial!!
Glad you like it!
Hi new subscriber here, I love this thank you for taking the time to do this for us who can’t afford $269 x3 kids 😩🤦🏻♀️. I will be going to get my zipper fleece, and bed sheets. My 3 babies are going to be so excited, let’s hope I can get the sewing machine done my late mom always tried to teach me and I never wanted to learn just to mess with it and every time I remember using the sewing machine the thread would be tangled up at the bottom side of the material (what could I do better, slow down the feeding) anyways thank you very much. You got me excited to be able to give my babies something cute and less expensive 🥰 blessings ma’am.
Hi Diana! Oh, your kids are going to love it. I have also experienced the thread getting tangled and I think it's due to the bobbin thread not being properly wound and it was probably the type of thread too. Try to skip the cheap cotton stuff and get a little nicer thread - this helped me.
That is awesome!! Thank you so much!!
So glad you like it. Thanks!
Simple. Looking to do this for our camper beds maybe
That's a great idea!
Great job!!!
Thank you!!
EXCELLENT JOB
Thank you so much 😀
I have 3 boys. The fact that I could get a sewing machine and bedding and do this myself for half the price of just ONE set of beddys is crazy.
Oh my goodness, that's so true! Beddy's are crazy expensive. I made this in an afternoon, but I'm not a perfectionist.
Oh my gosh, that’s looks so easy, or at least you made it look so easy. What did you do with the bottom? Did you just leave it open? It’s so pretty.
Thanks so much! I did leave it open because it tucked nicely down into the mattress, but it could be sewn down too.
Looks great! Now I just need a sewing machine and learn how to use one (wish me luck), but definitely worth it instead of paying $200+ for one Beddy's.
You can do it!
This was the easiest tutorial for these I have seen yet! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful and straight forward tutorial, thank you. You made it simple to do. How did you finish the bottom end?
Great question! I left the bottom open because it was long enough to be tucked in between the mattress and footboard. However, you could also sew it directly to the fitted sheet.
I love your fabric choice! Great instructions!
Thank you so much!
My Lil one is autistic and I'm gonna try this with him!
Great idea!
p.s. I just subscribed to your channel. You're Terrific!
Yay! Thank you!
With all respect, plus you’re excellent demo.
The reason I use zipped on sheet (adult) bed is for a Fresh change of bedding, this technique retains the fitted sheet in situ... I would need to remove and launder the (now THREE ) layered bed covers?
No, there are two pieces, the fitted sheet with a zipper and the top blanket with the other side of the zipper. Hope that helps.
My boys have a built in captains bed up against the wall. I'm thinking just put one zipper on the open side of the bed and just sewing down the side next to the wall.
You can definitely do that! I wasn't sure if my daughter would like the tight fit so I wanted the option of having the top feel more like a blanket. Turned out she likes to sleep snug as a bug~
Thank u I'm so gonna try this...will u do another video...doing this again!!??
I'm a beginner on sewing...
I may do another one~ I consider myself a beginner and it went pretty smoothly. I didn't even use a zipper foot on my machine.
Thanks for this tutorial! I know Beddys has a “comfort panel” so make sure the blanket covers the entire person. Any tips to include this?
Not sure, but this DIY zipper bedding kind of creates a sleeping bag situation. So there's sheet below and blanket on top.
You could leave the bottom open and the blanket hang off the end for length, and cut your blanket wider and sew the zipper away from the edge so there's extra width underneath. Does that make sense? It would be an extra step to tuck in the excess as you zip though.
Thank you for the great video. I own a few Beddys sheets, but they are getting worn out from all the washes. My kids love them but really want comforters that fit their interests right now and that they enjoy (horses, monster truck, princesses etc) and Beddys are all basic designs. I love how simple this is tutorial is and I plan on giving it a try. Is the bottom edge of the bed left open? Or does the zipper wrap around? Thanks.
Thanks for sharing!! The bottom is left open, and the excess just tucks at the end of the bed so it works to have free footies or a nicely made bed. Best of luck to you, it really is much easier than I thought.
@@Amy804Sycamore thank you.
great tips! your zipper link is continuous zipper not a finished one? How do you remove the zipper?
For a continuous zipper, I just cut it and wrapped it around the fabric underneath and sewed it. I couldn't find a finished zipper the exact length I needed and this way worked perfectly.
Could this work with a lighter fabric than fleece? It gets too hot.
Absolutely! It would probably be easier to sew if the fabric is thinner.
So are there zippers on both sides? Or did you sew in closed? What about the foot of the bed?
There are zippers on both sides and instead of sewing the bottom down, I just left it open because it was long enough to get tucked down.
@@Amy804Sycamore yeah, I went ahead and left it open. Your's was the easiest tutorial to follow, but I put my own spin on it. Thank you.
Am trying to decide whether to use plastic or metal zipper, have you had any issue with the plastic zipper you used?
Hi Julia! I've had no issues with the plastic zipper I used. I've washed the bedding many times and the zipper gets a lot of use.
@@Amy804Sycamore thank you so much for your reply, I’m using your video to do 4 sets for twins 😊
When you wash it, do you zip it up or leave unzipped?
I leave it zipped, send to keep the shape this way
I can’t find the other links to finish the bedding. Can you possibly send them to me?

So what size zipper did u get?? 2 yards for each side??
I got this zipper and cut it to the length I needed: rstyle.me/+kpDMt6i5gTeIWqvISGayjg
What type of stitch did you use ?
Hi Kate! Just a basic straight stitch. I'm very novice at sewing so I don't really deviate from the basics.
Can you put links for the pillows
Hi Patricia! Your question is such a sweet compliment. I made the pillows using some of my daughter's favorite t-shirts that she had grown out of but still loved.
@@Amy804Sycamore awwww I love every single one definitely a neat idea
Where do you buy the zipper?
Amazon
Just an FYI, Zipit Bedding is patented!
There are several zip up bedding brands. And people can still sew their own zippered bedding as long as they don’t sell it.
I'm not selling any bedding. My video is called zipper bedding.
Looks like to much work all stick with my beddys bedding way better
It does take some time, but it's way easier than having to cut out a pattern, etc. If Beddy's aren't in someone's budget, I think this is an affordable alternative.
@PeriodicalAdventures the ones I got fit good and I own 2 of them
