For those who share a bed, comfort isn't just personal. It is negotiated. Most of us don't sleep at the same temperature, turning many bedrooms into a nightly hot-and-cold compromise.

"Everyone sleeps differently, whether you're sharing a bed with a partner or changing your sleep habits over the course of a season," said Neil McLeish, senior merchandise manager at Sheridan.

"It can be hard to find the right bedding, and that's why we created our clippable quilts so you can customise your quilt to create your perfect sleep, year-round."

With clippable quilts, sleepers can customise their side of the bed to match their preferred temperature and quilt weight as well as quilt fibre.

"Start with your base quilt. We recommend choosing your base quilt to suit whoever sleeps warmer, because you can always add extra layers later," McLeish said.

"In the colder months, you can add an extra layer by clipping two quilts together. Just line up the tags and clip the quilts together along the edges.

"Don't be afraid to pair different fibres together to find what works best for your sleep," McLeish said.

Fibres and fillings in the range include feather and down, Australian wool and premium polyester fill with antibacterial treatment.

McLeish said attaching layers will add some extra height to the side it's clipped on.

To mask the height difference, flip the quilt over so the half quilt is on the underside. Patterned and textured quilt covers also create a disguise.

Air your clippable quilt regularly and wash it once a year following the care instructions.

Sizes range from single to super king. Quilt layers clip to the outside of the base quilt, with gentle grip tabs securing the centre and preventing movement.

"And it is that simple," McLeish said.

"That's how you can add layers to change your quilt between the seasons."
