Backed it with a $2 sheet I got at Salvation Army, sewed shoestrings to the inside the duvet & the outside of my down comforter, tied them together to keep the comforter in place inside the duvet. Used velcro on the bottom to keep the top & bottom together. Was fun.
I used 25 batik fat quarters so it would be big enuf. [ATTACH=CONFIG]6596[/ATTACH] One block. I did 5 across & 5 down. [ATTACH=CONFIG]6598[/ATTACH] Buzzy is the reason I made it - my comforter was always dirty where he slept. Now I can wash the duvet more often. [ATTACH=CONFIG]6622[/ATTACH] |
That's gorgeous annmarie! I love all those batiks you used....say, my comforter needs a new cover too...hmmmmm....!

Great colors! I recognize some of the batiks. :)

Very pretty, very creative, and very frugal!! I love the recycled sheet idea! Great job!

Gorgeous!! I love batiks, and have some that you used in your duvet. Buzzy looks very happy on his new duvet. :D :D
|
Looks like a discerning admirer claimed it before you. :lol:
That might be the ticket for me to make for DD's nice white down comforter. Love yours. piney |
I adore Batiks! You made them shine. Buzzy is one lucky pup! Look at him getting comfortable! :D
|
Great job, very colorful and comfortable looking!
|
Very Pretty!!! I am partial to batik material. I love your color combinations!!!
|
That is a beautiful Turning Twenty! It caught my attention because they have a Turning Twenty quilt in the baby room at JJ Stitches in Sun Prairie and I'm thinking of making one for a great niece due in March.
|
Super! You have me thinking about making a cover for our comforter, we sleep with 3 chihuahuas. I almost always use sheets for backings. Good work and thrifty too.
|
Oh my...i bet the chihuahua's are darling. My grandpa always had chihuahua's...Mitzy and Tika.
|
Great idea. I have been thinking of doing something similar, but haven't gotten around to doing anything about it. I do love batiks, and all the colors are so bright & pretty.
|
Beautiful batiks!
|
Super idea and the batiks look great. Buzzy is really cute.
|
I love it.
|
Looks great, love the colors!
|
Very pretty! Is Buzzy a bichon? We have one that looks just like him. Lily is our lap dog and LOVES to be on top of an blanket left in her reach!
|
Wow, I love the colours :!: :-P :!:
|
Buzzy is 13 years old & rules the roost. He is a Lahso/Shitshu mix.
Thanks for all the nice comments. I just started another duvet cover for my DH's down comforter - in blues using a Warm Wishes pattern. |
