New College = New bed size: Twin to XL

Vicki Pidgeon

Last year I bought a very nice fitted mattress topper for a twin size mattress. DD's new college has XL mattresses. I would like to find a way to add 5 inches to length. One thought is to buy a fitted XL sheet and sew the topper to it. Has anyone tried to make adjustments to make fitted sheets to fit XL mattresses? She also has 2 sheet sets I would love to use again (instead of purchasing new ones again).

I think the measurements are:

Twin fitted - 39" x 80"

XL Twin fitted - 39" x 80"

I beleive the flat sheets sizes are the sames for both twin and XL twin: 85" x 105", so I should be able to reuse the flat sheets and comforter.

Thanks for any ideas

Vicki
