Bonjour Kyle,

It would work, it works even better if you use the special fabric they use 
for the softboxes and other white umbrellas. I used to buy this stuff by the 
yard and then cut it to my needs. You can even wash it. Tint it for some 
special effects. Replace your bedsheets!

All the best,

Tarek
