Tips For Making A Duvet Cover From Sheets

For those of you who 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. In this article I will present some few ideas on how you can go about doing this.

As a starter the outcome may not be the best quality like when you buy duvet sets you find in retail shops but the exercise can really be rewarding and self filling. 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.

The best way to sort this out is by being well organised. Start by finding all the sheets you will need. Look for material that will suite your taste and style – For instance if you interested in a denim duvet cover then buy material made from that particular style or fabric. 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 do have an option to use ribbons if you love them. If the sheet is longer than the quilt then fold it down on one side – about 12 inches. 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 prefer soft nylon zippers because it’s less time consuming when dressing up the bed.
