If you have been trying tobuy a fabric for duvet or a completed duvet cover then you probably know how expensive it is to make such a purchase. Don’t give up just yet because you can make the cover yourself. Below I share a few insights on how you can do this.
Don’t worry if at first you don’t make one that are high quality like duvet sets covers you find in stores but depending on how fast you catch on it can be something to be proud of. One of the major difficulties with making one on your own is when it comes to taking care of the place where the sheets are inserted. You may have a challenge in closing off the top where you have your closures.
I suggest you start from the beginning. First, organize all the sheets that you will need. Go for a material that you absolutely adore – For instance if you interested in velvet duvet covers then it’s best you get the matching material. Before you think about folding the top sides you must first pin the bottom and side.
Find the spot where the two sheet ends are joined together and make buttonholes. This should be at the top, right and then use the buttons to close. You can also use ribbons if you like. You can fold the sheet about 12 inches down on one side, at the top if it is longer than the quilt. Then stitch it on the sides like an envelope closure.
Now for the closures you can also insert a zipper, snap tape, snaps or Velcro if you are looking for something stiff. I suggest you consider nylon zippers if you are looking for something more convenient and easy to handle.
