Does anyone know how to make a "hugger" comforter from an existing comforter? My granddaughter has recently been given bunk beds and I think it would be easier for her to make the beds if she had hugger comforters (fitted on one end). They are very expensive to buy, but it seems to be that a regular comforter could be cut down and then made to fit on one end. I just can't seem to picture how to do it...

I have never done this but perhaps you could try this suggestion. Place the quilt on the bed and tuck in the bottom section as you would a sheet. At the corners fold up the edges to the top of the mattress and lay the top of the quilt over the fold. Pin in place and sew by machine.
Put the quilt on the bed upside down. Using large safety pins creat a "basted" seam along the bottom corner. Stitch and trim.
One suggestion - use a regular comforter and buy straps to hold it on the mattress. Bed Bath and Beyond is just one store that offers these - click on link:

We have a sewing room that will convert comforters to huggers. Contact www.kidscomfortz.com
Do you have Microsoft Excel? If so, I can send you step-by-step instructions with diagrams showing how to make the corners. I cannot convert the file to gif or jpeg and couldn't figure out how to do it in Microsoft Word.
I would love a copy of this if you are willing to share.
I am also trying to find a way to secure the coverlets on 2 sets of bunk beds, using purchased items and converting to cap ends. I would love to have the set of instructions you mentioned. Thank you so much.
Do you still have the instructions to share? Your post was quite some time ago, but clearly several people, myself included, have run across it looking for help on the same problem.
Would it be possible to get your bedhugger instructions? I would really appreciate it! Thanks!!!
Any chance I can get a copy? I would love to try this
Could I please get a copy of your hugger comforter instructions? I would really appreciate it.
I am interested in receiving these instructions if they are still available. I have Excel. So, sending them in that format would be great. Thanks for any help you can provide.
I would also like the instructions for making the coverlet corners.
Thank you for sharing.

Wow! Ten years later and we are still adjusting our new comforters to fit nicely on a bunk bed. If you still have this I would absolutely love to have it. Thank you so much!

Would like the instructions on how to convert a quilt to a bed hugger for bunk beds. Bed Huggers are pretty pricey would like to convert the quilts I have.
I would appreciate the instructions on how to convert a regular comforter to a hugger for a platform bed. Thank you.

I need instructions on how to created a hugger for bunk beds
does anyone have these instructions to send to me. it would make a huge difference for us.

Please send me the instructions for a bed "hugger." My grandchildren toss and turn so much I need to make their comforters stay on their beds?
I have been tirelessly searching the web for the same type of conversion instructions BEFORE cutting into a $230 bedspread. I'm pretty confident, but want to be absolutely sure of what I'm doing first.
I, too, would LOVE a copy of these instructions. I have it about figured out but would so appreciate written instructions that I can follow step-by-step instead of having to rip out when I goof up!!

Could I also get a copy of the "how to hugger instructions " please?
Did you get the instructions? I would like to get them, too, but not sure how to contact the original poster. If you have them, could you send them to me?
Try searching for making a fitted sheet from a flat sheet and then sew it at the foot end of the quilt. Maybe this will help. www.mybluprint.com/
