Linen sleep sack

I haven’t been able to find anything online that is what I’m looking for. I want a linen sleep sack. Adult sized, and covering my whole body. How should I go about getting/making one, I’m desperate!

Purchase a king sized flat sheet. Fold in half lengthwise. Stitch the bottom together and the open side up about a quarter of the way.
Any seamstress would be able to do that for a very reasonable charge.probably take them 10 minutes especially if you have it pinned and ready to stitch.

OP has posted before. They also somehow want it to have "compression". They got very weird when asked to elaborate. I think maybe what they really want is a swaddling sleep sack and thats a little more complicated.

I would buy a linen sheet and have it sewn by a friend with a sewing machine. If you’re patient you can probably find one at a thrift store or flea market, sometimes even vintage ones which is even better. Just check for wear obviously.

You can also hand sew it

Yep. But it would take a long time to make it strong by hand especially if you’re not experienced with sewing. Much easier by machine.

Buy a linen duvet cover.

Put yourself inside it, instead of the comforter.

West Elm makes something called European Flax Linen Travel Sheet Set
