The branded bed topper of choice wasn't the correct width or configuration for our beds so I made some from scratch.
Here's a list of materials/equipment and other useful stuff that I used:
Materials used/nearest equivalent:
Egyptian fitted sheet in grey: amzn.to/2SXm81b
Brushed cotton sheet in grey: amzn.to/39Mtc6C
Egyptian cotton single duvet cover, grey: amzn.to/2s5VN66
1"/2.5cm memory foam topper with coolmax cover (small single size): amzn.to/2QtCGw6
Plastic snap poppers and press: amzn.to/39R1jdZ
Sewing gear:
Pinking shears: amzn.to/2MZxHkA
My favourite sewing machine: amzn.to/2SZSsQZ
Use strong thread, such as Gutermann extra-strong, I favour polyester as it won’t rot or wick water through: amzn.to/2s1JDel
Extra long pins: amzn.to/2txxb6x
Sharpie fine tips: amzn.to/35vKHoz
Tailor's chalk: amzn.to/2ZYFuEt
Snap off knife: amzn.to/2N2q4Kg
Zip on a roll including sliders:amzn.to/2N2qfFq
Hot foam cutter: amzn.to/37KcGlX
General craft (smooth cut) scissors: amzn.to/2MZzcPK
50mm heavy duty stick on "velcro": amzn.to/39LmFJB

20mm sew in "velcro": amzn.to/2SXldhf
50mm sew in "velcro": amzn.to/2sLTGEW
Quilted fabric (used to make "walls" in other vids) - I used a double stitch pattern microfibre with a 135g wadding backing. Unfortunately as these fabrics are made in batches that particular colour is no longer available but the company has these as the closest equivalents: rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53... Make sure to order a sample first to check it's correct for your project!
