Curly Girl vs. The Duvet

My mother decided to change the colors in her bedroom
and gave us her beautiful duvet.
It's gorgeous crisp cotton with tiny embroidered
flowers and leaves. Love it.



We have a fab, king size down comforter.
It's huge.


So, here I am surrounded by
tons of fabric and down.

So first I try to spread out the comforter:

Then I try to lay out the duvet:

.....and I try.....

.....and I try!

Then I fight with both, working up quite a sweat.

Finally.....SUCCESS (after about 45 minutes!)

.....then I passed out.

Let me guess...you aren't one of those people who doesn't use sheets? I bet you don't want to do this every few days when you wash the duvet cover!

Love it! Enjoy a good night's sleep with your new duvet! What a project...and in re: to your question about knitting...I found learning easy - the hard part for me was fixing/recognizing mistakes. Have a good week and keep the cartoons coming! Love them...

Very cute!!!!! I always end up with a giant lump of comforter somewhere inside the duvet. No way would I give up though Alohaaroha, even if I had better luck with it. :-)
