Thanks everyone for your kind comments. I don't know if I made myself clear or not, but the skirt is attached, so it's one piece. Now my DH wants a bed skirt like that in our bedroom. I need a skirt, but we have a down comforter on the bed and I certainly wouldn't attach one to that, and I've been trying to come up with something because I can't move the mattress to make one. I'd like to figure out something that comes in pieces so I can put it on by myself, and take it off. And I'm in a wheelchair, only one leg, so it's a bit difficult. But NOT impossible!
