I remember doing a badge in Girl Guides, was it 'Homemakers' or summat and in the 'test' they asked what you would do with a sheet that was threadbare in the middle......i was well, you'd just chuck it in the bin, but I knew that wasn't the 'right' answer....The correct answer was cut it in the middle and stitch the two other ends together.....like you'd want some scratchy seam in the midlle of your bed
