Well, I didn't expect it to work...but it did!

I saw this and thought of this thread!

Must try this!
Although with the tugging of the duvet between us all night I’d still like to try having one single one each, he’s not impressed I’m working on it though.

We did this quite a while ago. Then we wondered why we hadn't thought of it before, not least because I need warm coverings and MrB is happy with cooler.

And no more duvet tugging or (accidental ) hogging

I turn the cover inside out grab the two corners and let the cover fall down the duvet totally simple

That's how I do it too.
Until we moved to a bungalow I used to hold tight to the corners and dangle the rest over the stairwell from the top bannister rail. That way gravity did most of the work with a couple of shakes from me.
Nowadays there's a bit more shaking involved!

Haha Lixy I do this when folding my king size sheets and duvet covers! I'm now buying a bungalow and I've wondered how I will cope...

ParlorGames I have used this method for years anything which makes life easy is good for me.

We have two singles on a king size bed - best thing we ever did! No tugging - easier to launder - and so much easier to put on the duvet. Plus, if one of you were having a bad night and despatched to the sofa there'd be no problem with who had the duvet.

I have always done the same as Bluebell always worked for me. I may give this a try though.

Wow - can’t wait to try that! Thanks, ParlorGames. 😁

BlueBelle, I used to do it that way but as I am only 5 feet tall with worn out shoulders it did pose some difficulties - OH did it that way too, up until yesterday.
I don't think he really expected my experiment to work but he was really impressed.
As our duvet covers are washed inside out the whole process was a doddle, no shaking, no corner alignment, and no sweat.

I've never really thought about it. I just stuff the duvet in until it reaches the corners and then shake holding the tops. Our bed is king size.

This is a great method and one I've been using for a while now.
