Also if you sew it together your making future changes difficult. Good luck

13. Can a duvet cover be put over a regular comforter?

Check the measurements on your comforter first. The ones for the duvet should be listed on the label or outside packaging. It's the only way to tell if the cover will fit. Some duvets are slightly smaller and plumper than comforters, but you might be able to tuck in a corner or two to make the comforter fit. A black duvet with a large white lily sounds dramatic and attractive. Unless you've seen one advertised somewhere, or shown in a magazine (with the brand name), you might have to have this item custom made. A good dressmaker could tackle the job for you at a reasonable price. Good luck!
