I agree with the quilt it with only a light backing, then put the envelope back on for the duvet. That would make it great, and you'd both be happy!! Beautiful quilt top. It'll be wonderful no matter which way you do it.

In conclusion: I backed the top with muslin and machine quilted the layers together with no batting. Then made the envelope with a swirly gold. The customer is more than happy with it - which makes me happy!
