It should be easy to find a pattern like that in a soft muslin, percale or other soft cotton. In fact, I have seen many sheet patterns like that floral. Buying two flat sheets and stitching them together on three sides with buttons or snaps along the fourth edge is a quick and economical way to make a duvet cover. The problem with making a duvet with fabric you buy by the yard is that it is usually not wide enough and you have to make a seam down the middle or on two sides to get the width to cover the bed.<br><b>References : </b><br>Always make my own duvets out of sewn together bed sheets Yes, it is much too stiff — it would be like sleeping under cardboard.

It wrinkles a lot and it will shrink from washing and drying. Not the best fabric for bedding.<br><b>References : </b><br> It’s stiff and it doesn’t launder very well.
