I recently made a duvet cover for my sister because we both use feather duvets here. as I sewed the blocks together I used a zig zag stitch because I don't have a serger, so none of the seams will fray. I used big pieces for the back and just sewed the two large pieces (top and Bottom) together like a pillow case inside out and then used velcro for the opening. Works for her!

I was thinking maybe French seams on the inside might be a good idea, too. That would keep the inside "threadless" and less apt to fray, don't you think? :?: Yeah, Loretta, it takes some getting used to when you hear women talk about 'birthing a quilt'! :D
