Duvets

[c9]

Okay, could somebody freakin' explain to me why our duvet doesn't stay arranged inside the duvet cover, so that I always end up basically covered by a sheet instead of the wonderful goose feather type things?

Actually, I know why this happens. Could somebody freakin' explain why it's not featured in the advertising of the Duvet Marketing Board, or how I can fix it? I mean, sheesh.

I just use two large safety pins to hold the corners - I thought that I got that idea from Martha...and now that I think about it, the ribbon solution mentioned below too...apparently she has lots of solutions to this problem.

I suppose the key is to find something small and unobtrusive to hold the corners in place. I've used the stitch thing several years now, but I only really have one duvet cover that I use regularly, and the rest are bedspreads or duvets that don't require covers.

More from Martha:

Baby leprechauns also will hold well if properly sedated, and add a festive springlike green glow to one's bed ensemble.

Yeah, safety pins are my current (unimplemented) plan. Glad to hear this issue is common.
