What do you think? This split nine patch is begging to be more than just a duvet cover! The customer is always right - except when the artist insists on more.

Just line it and without batting quilt it. Then add the envelope back.

I think this is a great idea, but I'd present it to the customer first. She would have to be more than receptive!

the top will need quilting just to make it all hold together well over time. lots of seams in there.
