A duvet cover is comprised of a base sheet and a top sheet interconnected together by a peripheral stitched seam. A down feather sheet is retained between the base sheet and the top sheet. The down feather sheet has a substantially constant density of down feathers with the down feathers being retained captive by a binder thereby the duvet cover has a substantially constant insulating factor throughout because the down feathers are immovably retained therein. Such a duvet cover permits the creation of all sorts of stitched or quilted designs therein without concern for the propagation of the down feathers between the base sheet and the top sheet of the duvet which would create irregular insulation.

A duvet cover system includes a cover assembly, defined by first and second fabric layers with a pocket defined between the layers, and which is configured to receive a separate fill layer, defined by a blanket or comforter. One of the fabric layers and the fill layer include fastening elements that engage one another to secure the fill layer in position within the cover assembly, and at least some of these fastening elements are color-coded to identify the size of the bed for which the system is to cover. As such, a plurality of different size cover assemblies can be easily sorted for pairing with proper corresponding sizes of fill layers based on the easy size identification provided by the color-coded fastening elements.

Disclosed are improvements to duvet cover apparatus and related methods. The disclosed duvet cover and methodologies are suitably hygienic, quick and easy to put onto a bed, efficient for patronage turnover in hospitality industries. In a preferred embodiment, the disclosed apparatus is a clam-shell type duvet cover.

Improved batting insert materials for quilting are provided herein. The improved batting materials are adapted to be positioned between a quilt top and quilt bottom, and the materials advantageously prevent slippage of quilt layers during stitching without the need for pinning or basting. The insert materials generally comprise a batting layer and a flannel layer secured to the batting layer. The flannel layer is adapted to be positioned abutting the quilt bottom, and it has been discovered that the interaction between the surfaces of these fabrics prevents the layers from slipping. Quilts and methods utilizing the improved batting insert materials are also provided herein.

A bedding assembly comprises an at least substantially rectangular insulating coverlet (1), an at least practically fitting sleeve (2) with which the duvet is covered. The sleeve (2) is closed on a first side (3) and open on an opposite side (4) in order to receive the coverlet (1). Provided in or at least close to a first and a second corner on the first side (3) of the assembly are manually releasable fixation means (10) which connect the coverlet (1) to the sleeve (2) in or close to the corners.

Described herein are methods and apparatus for customizing expressive content applied to an article, generally an article made from a fabric. Although the present disclosure is made with reference to quilts specifically, these are non-limiting exemplary embodiments, and the disclosure is by no means limited to quilts. The present disclosure is applicable to other arts and crafts, particularly, but not limited to, those involving the use of fabrics and similar materials.

A duvet insert includes a plurality of filler compartments for receiving filler material, a first edge including a first number of coupling mechanisms, and a second edge opposing the first edge such that the plurality of filler compartments is positioned between the first edge and the second edge. The second edge includes a second number of coupling mechanisms different than the first number. At least one of the first number of coupling mechanisms or at least one of the second number of coupling mechanisms enables the duvet insert to be coupled to another duvet insert to form a combined duvet insert.

The invention relates to a weighted comforter for improving the sleep quality, having a blanket, which includes a number of weights in the interior of the blanket, wherein air channels, which increase the breathability and moisture absorbency of the blanket, are formed in the blanket, wherein a plurality of layers is provided in the blanket.

The invention comprises a blanket having a frustum shaped foot pocket and method of making said blanket and further means for securing the upper left corner of the blanket to the upper right corner and around a user's neck for maintaining secure attachment of the blanket to a user.

An adjustable bed covering system includes a comforter having one or more connection strips for removably affixing pillows that may remain attached to the bed covering during the bed making process. The pillows have connecting strips compatible with the connecting strips found on the comforter. One or more pillows and/or the comforter may further include a flap for concealing or hiding the connecting strips. The bed covering may include a rigid rod or pole traversing the width of the comforter along its head end. The comforter may also be attached to mattress pockets that fit over the corners of a mattress in order to better align the comforter.
