Stop duvet moving about inside its cover?

Im sure other people must have this problem as well!!.

I know when im asleep my duvet gets pulled, rolled, folded etc all over the place, and when i wake up i quite often find that the duvet inside the cover is folded but the cover is ok..... if that makes any sense.

Is there any advise on how to stop this or a devise to stop the quilt moving about inside the cover?

(Sorry if it makes no sense its hard to explain :p )

    You could get some velcro.

    Stitch one side of the velcro into each corner of the duvet, and stitch the other side of the velcro into each corner on the inside of the cover. Then just join the two and pull apart again when you change the cover.

  • Was also going to suggest velcro, but in my house it would get covered in fluff and not work so well, so I'd go for little plastic 'poppers' (like you probably have on the bottom of the duvet cover to keep it closed.

    Sew one inside the cover on each corner, and one in the middle of each side, then the other 'half' onto the quilt in matching places.
