# woo!
i can empathise with dan there. i hate putting duvey covers on. i have to have the duvet right up to the top of the cover, having excess material at the top really pisses me off

# i've just put our winter duvet on
and it's slightly too big for the cover

and that is really annoying too

# oh yes. grrr.
actually, are you sure its the right way round? it might fit if you rotate it 90 degrees

# I cheat
I put the top corners of the duvet into the top corners of the duvet cover, and then use hairbands to hold the corners in place while i get the rest of the duvet into the cover.

# Blimey
I just put the top corners in, shake it up and down and then tuck the bottom corners in.

# maybe you have better reach than me
cos I find it very difficult with a double duvet. Single I can manage without, but double is just too big for little me.

# get in the cover
pull the duvet in with you
hold the duvet into the corners of the cover, above you head, crucifix-style
fall forwards onto the bed,
crawl out backwards
do up the cover
hey presto!
