OK, all you ironing freaks... what's the best method for dealing with kingsize duvet covers? It always ends up being a huge battle for me... I can never get the seams straight, and the middle never gets done properly either.

sorry cant help dont iron bedding its all inthe folding:D

Erm... not sure about this one... you mean you iron the duvet as well as the cover?! Problem is, I don't appear to have enough duvets for the number of covers that managed to end up in the ironing basket

put them all away, cupboard drawer, wherever they live, when you need one, put it on the duvet, using the bed as flat surface, and iron....

Thanks all Sorry for being so up and down at the moment! Feeling a bit more up now, think I'm going to go to bed early and take my phone with me and do my shopping list for tomorrow Lack of sleep and an awful diet over the last couple of weeks probably isn't helping me! Shall try my best to concentrate on one bit at a time but when you've looked at the whole thing for years and despaired it's hard to change, especially when you think you've done good and parents arrive and make a comment, although they have got better after I had a huge paddy about it that they were always criticising even when I'd tried

I may try and login to here on my phone when I get there, although I can't remember my password which doesn't help :rotfl:
