Does anyone remember sheet blankets? We had sheet blankets on our bed in the summer in NY. I would love to find them again as they would be perfect for the batting for a quilt staying in AZ. They are probably a thing of the past like so many other things we remember from long ago. Sigh!
I remember sheet blankets - we always had one on the bed in the summer. My SIL uses a flannel flat sheet as her summer cover.
