What duvet is suppose to be the best? I just bought a large feather duvet and feather pillows - are the little stalks of the feathers supposed to.

How do you keep a down comforter from bunching up inside its duvet cover?

Is there an easy way of getting the comforter straight with the duvet cover after it has been bunched up in side of it?

    Many duvets come with elastic loops or button holes that you can fasten the covers to. If they don’t already a simple loop of elastic sown to the duvet and a button sown inside the cover should keep things from bunching up.

    Turn the duvet cover inside out and lay the down comforter on top of it. Safety pin every few feet, attaching the outside of the comforter to the inside seam of the duvet cover. Then pull the duvet cover down right-side out over the comforter.

    If it’s a nice comforter, use more safety pins, to limit the pull on the fabric containing the down filler.

    Martha Stewart sews ribbon to the inside corners of the duvet and to the comforter. Turn the cover inside out, attach the corners and turn it right side out. Tie the other two ends and button the cover closed.
