I had thought about layering, with the quilt on the top layer, but I don't know what to use underneath except a sheet...and that just won't do.

Any decorator ideas? I thought maybe some of you had the same problem and already solved it.

Thanks in advance,

I had curtains that matched one of my borders on a special quilt - took them apart and made a 10" gathered ruffle that I sewed just under the binding to lenthen the quilt. It looked like a dust ruffle and I used it for several years like that. Thought it looked nice and like it belonged.
