Tack Zipper
Sew a piece of lining fabric, approximately 2" x 4", over one inch of each end of the zipper. Make sure the zipper head is kept loose between the two pieces of fabric. Match the color of the thread and the zipper to the duvet lining.
Sew On the Zipper
Remove pins from the bottom side of coverlet. Sew one side of the zipper face-down to the bottom side of coverlet and the other side of the zipper face-down to the bottom side of lining.
Sew Coverlet to Lining
Sew coverlet to flat sheet using a straight stitch, about 1/2 inch in from the edge.
