Which way round does it go?

I put the duvet in the cover either way, doesn't seem to affect the warmth or anything else!i

I think up and down makes it snuggle round you more cosily.

Slightly longer / wider bit goes across bed

I would put it with the stitching going from head to foot.

Food for thought, I've always put mine in with the stitching running across

The stitching on ours goes both ways

Mine is stitched in squares which means that the filling stays put.

Same as kitty. And mine's a king size so it is exactly square.

Ours is too Indinana, so I try to take the cover off in position or I get very confused.

Why confused, kitty? Being perfectly square it doesn't matter which way the cover goes back on - that's the beauty of it!

Mine is similar to anno's- it makes such a difference on a cold night not finding the entire duvet close to the bottom of the bed and me shivering under the cover on its own.

I think that mine is slightly longer- I have never had to think about it.

I try to rotate it or the squares at the top seem to get flatter.

my King sized isn't square

Oh I see what you mean kitty! Yes that's what I do too, which is why it's so handy being a true square!

I've had 3 kingsuze quilts aggie and they've all been square. Without checking, I think they're 200 x 200 cm

Double quilts are square. I would think Kingsize would be wider, but not longer.

From the Duvet Store

Yes, usually double duvets are square. All the other sizes have one side slightly longer than the other (but I don't know whether that's width-wise or length-wise!)

I've always put mine with the wider bit across the bed,so if you have a bed partner who hogs the covers there is always plenty left for you.

Mines stitched in squares but it is longer one way than the other by a few inches, its Kingsize .

I do mine up and down ways and its nearly square king size.

Ours is stitched in squares too.

Mine is the same tanithand it is easy to see.
