Duvet covers are a great way to protect your comforter while also adding a touch of style to your bedroom. Making your own duvet cover set can be a fun and rewarding sewing project. In this article, we will be discussing how to sew a duvet cover set using model 20.

Model 20 is a popular duvet cover set sewing pattern that features a simple yet elegant design. This pattern typically includes instructions for sewing a duvet cover, pillow shams, and a bed skirt. The finished set will give your bedroom a cohesive and polished look.

To get started, you will need the following materials:

– Fabric for the duvet cover, pillow shams, and bed skirt
– Matching thread
– Sewing machine
– Scissors
– Pins
– Iron
– Duvet insert
– Pillow forms

Before you begin, prewash and press your fabric to prevent shrinkage. Then, lay out your fabric and cut out the following pieces:

– Duvet cover: Cut two rectangles that are the same width as your duvet insert and slightly longer to allow for seam allowances.
– Pillow shams: Cut two rectangles for each sham, one for the front and one for the back. The dimensions will depend on the size of your pillows.
– Bed skirt: Cut a rectangle for the top of the bed skirt and four rectangles for the sides. The length of the side pieces will depend on the height of your bed.

Next, sew the duvet cover by placing the two rectangles right sides together and sewing along three sides, leaving one side open. Turn the cover right side out and press the seams. Insert the duvet into the cover and hand-stitch the open side closed.

For the pillow shams, sew the front and back rectangles together along three sides, leaving one side open. Turn the sham right side out and press the seams. Repeat for the second sham.

To make the bed skirt, sew the side pieces together to create a long strip. Then, attach the top piece to the strip, leaving an opening at the foot of the bed. Hem the bottom edge of the bed skirt and attach it to the box spring using pins or Velcro.

Finally, add the finishing touches by sewing any decorative trim or embellishments to the duvet cover and pillow shams. You can also add buttons or snaps to close the duvet cover.

With model 20, you can create a beautiful duvet cover set that will elevate the look of your bedroom.
