How Do You Make A Duvet Cover From Bedsheets?
Use two flat bedsheets in any pattern you like to make this attractive, European-style duvet cover. Step 1 Put two sheets on top of each other, with the right sides touching. Step 2 Use straight pins to pin your sheets together on three sides (both long sides and one of the short sides). Place the pins about 3 inches apart and 1 inch in from the edge. Leave the sheets unpinned along the long sides about 6 inches from the unpinned short side. Step 3 Sew the sheets together along the same three sides where you placed the pins, about 2 inches in from the edges. Do not sew the 6 inches left unpinned on each long side. Be very careful to avoid hitting the pins with the sewing machine needle. Step 4 Sew along the sides again so that the seams will be double-stitched and extra-strong. Step 5 Turn the sheets so that the unsewn short edge is facing you. Trim 5 inches from the bottom sheet (the one you plan to have face down on the bed) so that only 1 inch is left unsewn along the two long sides

Using bedsheets enables you to create customized solutions for an otherwise dull room. Because there are so many choices in colors and patterns, the ability to have several choices is within reach at a moments notice. • Creating a duvet cover out of bed sheets could not be easier. There is no pattern and no cutting will be required. There are only a minimal amount of tools needed and a minimal amount of sewing skills. If you can put your foot on a sewing machine pedal and sew a straight line, you can create a duvet
