I have been gifted some beautiful duvet covers and one hand made one and have never used them because I have enough to do making a temperpedic bed without arm wrestling a comforter in a duvet cover. Am I wrong or do they stay in place inside the cover? All of my comforters and duvet covers are cotton. Please help me understand this?
Madamekelly - I find that duvets stay nicely in their covers unless the cover is much too big for the duvet. I have one cover that's too big; with it, I hold the bottom corners (of cover + duvet) and shake it towards the top once a week when I change the sheets. Otherwise, they just stay... by friction, I guess?
Give it a try; since you already have the comforter and duvet cover, the worst outcome is that you don't like it and go back to your old system.
