DH and I went the two duvets on king size bed route But DH didn't like it .
Went back to one king size so I painstakingly sewed the two single covers together. My mum would have been so pleased with me -waste not want not!

I find the best method is to get DH to do them. I try not to grumble if they end up inside out.

Swedish duvet covers have neat little slits in the top corners. You just slip your hands through and out through the bottom, grab the corners of the quilt and pull it through. Easy. In the early days of operating in the UK, IKEA duvet covers were made like this, but people didn't realise what the holes were for and kept returning the covers as faulty.

Last night I asked DH to make up the bed while I went for a bath. I walked in 20 minutes later and he was stood in the middle of the room exactly like that photo! He'd been stood there the entire time trying to work out what he was supposed to do.

peaceful I had an ikea duvet cover like that...worked it out cos it was more than one corner ...
I still found it a faff just slightly easier if it got rucked up - have 'missed' them once or twice but not enough to unpick the top edges of other covers without the slits (guess you'd have to hem it up to stop fraying though)

Stuff the 'how to put the duvet cover on?" conundrum.
I want to know where I can get a duvet cover with zips like in the You Tube video!!

Get the zip ones; it'll change your life.

I got mine in Muji but I'm sure other places do them.
