Do the Pier do duvet covers? They have pretty stuff.

If my budget would stretch I would buy Laura Ashley (as long as my boyfriend wouldn't object to the cuteness!)

Dunhelm Mill is a good place to look, although they would be a little more traditional, but still pretty. Mine currently is from there. Its light blue with dark blue appliqué leaves. Yum its pretty!

I have the twister one!

No-one has played with me yet though :p:

I went to a massive asda hypermarket type thing, and they had a really cool black/white reversible plain duvet cover set. I've bought that and then i'm gonna customise it. If i get bored of one side, i flip it over and have a totally new design!

It was only £8 for a double set, and it wouldn't cost much to personalise it. Maybe an option?

Ooo that one with the stars rocks! I don't usually pay that much for duvet covers but it is cool...

An ex of mine had one of the Twister duvets - I wanted one ever since :rolleyes:
This thread is still going?

Is there anyone here who is a little shaky about people trying to find 'Retro/Vintage' things... and trying to be 'Quirky!'?

If it keeps you warm... but not too warm when there's two of you, then its all good!

Nope, there are bigger issues in the world and its up the OP what she wants on her bed.
