The duvet is nice and warm, however over time, I have noticed that my room is covered in little down feathers. They get on my clothes and sheets, and are just a menace. Is there something like a duvet cover that has small enough and strong enough pores to not let feathers through? Or am I better off getting a new synthetic one?

I have not had good luck with regular down comforters not bunching up etc. inside my coverlet, but I know that featherbed mattress toppers keep their shape much longer, so I was just wondering if it would be okay to stuff my duvet cover with a featherbed instead of the down comforter.

brightnbewildered asked:

I have flat sheets that we don’t use, and I’m having trouble finding a duvet cover to match our sheets. How much do you think it would cost, realistically, to pay someone to fashion a duvet out of the flat sheets I have? I’m thinking with button closures.

Also, I live in NJ and work in NY so there are plenty of dry cleaners that offer “alterations” .. should I go to them, or find my seamstress elsewhere?
