A standard Bed Skirt is continuous fabric on the sides and front.  If you have a foot board and side rails on your bed, you must split the corners to accommodate the rails.

A reverse sham is 20″ of additional fabric attached to your bedspread or coverlet at the top of the product on the reverse side.  When you make the bed, the pillows are placed at the top of the bed and the reverse sham is “flipped” up and over the pillows.

A header is added to many window treatments for decorative purposes.  The header is located above the rod pocket. It is made from the same fabric as the window treatment.  When the window treatment is gathered on the rod, the header will look like “ruffled” fabric.

Seams are a fact of life when using designer fabrics because fabric width is a maximum of 54″.  To make the seam barely noticeable, you need a excellent workmanship and a superior understanding of pattern matching.  We have both.

Full, Queen, King and Cal. King headboards will have two seams in the approximate locations indicated below (unless the fabric is non-directional).  We use two seams to balance their placement.

Coverlets can be made to fit the bed.  In a fitted style, the corners are split and quilted gussets are sewn into the splits.  A gusset is a triangular or diamond shaped piece extra fabric that is sewn into the corners to achieve a tailored look.

Bedspreads can be made to fit the bed.  In a fitted style, the corners are split and quilted gussets are sewn into the splits.  A gusset is a triangular or diamond shaped piece extra fabric that is sewn into the corners to achieve a tailored look.

Fiberfill is a backing material commonly used in making bedding products.  The weights of the Fiberfill will vary depending on the machinery used to make the different quilting patterns.

Fabric Upholstered headboards are the best solution for your child’s room without question.  Not only are they the most cost effective, easy on the head for horsing around (you know how much kids love to jump up and down on their beds)  but are perfect for the ever changing tastes of your 5 year old. When your fire truck or princess themed room is out of style in 3 years, it is easy and cheap to change to football and psychedelic, simply by changing the fabric on your headboard.    Compared to a traditional wood headboard, upholstered headboards are much more economical.  We here it all the time that people decided on a fabric headboard since the wood headboard they had their eye on cost thousands of dollars compared to our headboards that start at a little over $200! 

When it comes to a kid’s room, a twin headboard covered in a solid duck cloth available in over 60 colors is $193!  Fabricworkroom has one of the largest selections available online to create the headboard of your choice.   They are easy to order online and so simple to install.  Many designers as well as hotels around the country are opting for the Upholstered look for the reasons above as well as the general look of comfort.  After all, that is what your bedroom should be all about.  Below we paired it with a solid duvet cover and pillows in one of our sold duck cloths, Dream Cerise with Dream White Welting.

We had a call from a customer that asked if our headboards “smelled”. “Smelled” – like what? Although she didn’t want to admit, she had purchased and headboard from a large retailer whom shall remain nameless. She wants to get rid of it because it has a “musty” odor and can’t take it any more. She didn’t want to make the same mistake.

If we went to ancestry.com and looked up her headboard, we would probably find that it was born in some far away Asian country. It probably had 1,000 identical bothers and sisters. The materials were most likely stored in some hot humid warehouse. The “parents” probably worked in some sweat shop and it was made in 10 minutes. Then imagine your headboard and its siblings are stuffed into a sea container and travel the seven seas to arrive in the U.S. weeks later. Have you ever gone on a cruise and remember how nice your cabin was? That’s not what the inside of a sea container looks like. Think hot and sweaty – again. With enough heat and humidity, you can begin to create the odor from clothes left in the washer for a couple of days.

How are our fabric headboards born? First, there is no birth until you order one. The wood is stacked neatly in a fully climate controlled environment right here in the United States. When your order enters our system, the heavy duty frame is built by our craftsmen just for you according to your selected style. Then the frame moves to our upholstery department where it is covered with foam rubber wrapped in polyester fiber taken from our air conditioned storage. Next your headboard is upholstered with one of our 5,000 plus unique stocked designer fabrics all stocked in our air conditioned workroom. Your headboard may have a cousin or two, but not 1,000 identical siblings.

So here is your choice. Buy a smelly upholstered headboard using “questionable” labor from some far away place that is identical to 999 other headboards. Or get a beautiful odor free one-of-a-kind headboard made in the U.S.A. for approximately the same price.
