Anyone ever do this? I find this an interesting custom

Bundling:

Definition 1: Sleeping with someone of the opposite sex fully clothed, separated by a blanket, or sewn up in a bundling bag.

Usage 1: References to bundling go as far back as the book of Ruth in the Old Testament. It was probably wide-spread throughout Europe and came thence to the US, where it was practiced particularly in New England and may still be practiced among the Amish and Mennonites. Sewing the bundlee into a bag, as seen in the film, 'The Patriot,' was not widespread. Rather, the couple was separated by a blanket or slept bundled in their clothes. Under the Amish and Mennonites, it became a form of courtship, a way for a future married couple to spend time alone without risk of offspring.

Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
