Orkney Natural duvet cover - This is it: linen as it was made in farms and cottages with characteristic slubs and texture.

Elemental...  timeless, plain, natural linen woven on traditional single-width looms,  three pieces joined with with minimum seams.
 
The fabric begins with its own clean, crisp texture, softening with wear and washing to a silvery sheen.

The plainest of buttons, white or coconut shell brown.
Orkney White duvet cover - The same Orkney fabric bleached, so it has the slubs and texture, but not the subtle natural colour - it's a soft creamy white. Choice of white or brown buttons.
Orkney Natural and White striped - Like so many of my products, a striped Orkney duvet cover wasn't my idea. A customer wanted it. I had my doubts, sewed it and fell in love! After the postman took it away, I sat down and made another, just for me. Prices are $50 higher than plain.

Tricia,
I received my duvet cover and pillow slips this afternoon. I washed them and dried them by air (it was a warm evening) and have been lounging in them tonight. They are absolutely wonderful.

I fell in love with linen sheets on a voyage through in Sicily last year.They were used in many of my small hotels and I was so surprised how much more I enjoyed sleeping in linen over plain cotton.

I managed to find a queen fitted sheet and two pillow cases in Italy, but no duvet cover or shams. So thank you for bringing me a little bit of Sicily here in SF! Now my bed is completely in linen and I am plum pleased. Thanks so much!
Warmest regards, ~ Maia

Tricia - I have been trying to convince myself to do a whole linen makeover. One question: can a duvet cover be made that is 98x98? I have a brand new comforter that I love, but it's that odd size. Thank you for keeping linen alive and lovely. ~ Hampton


Yes Hampton, I can make a cover for that size. Just order a Cal-king, and put the dimensions into the notes - it is too small an adjustment to warrant a custom charge. The cover will be a few inches smaller than the infill to keep it nice and plump. ~ Tricia

Tricia - The Orkney duvet cover and pillowcases arrived today. The cover fits perfectly - easy as heck to stuff (the video helped), and sized just right to plump and stay in place.
It's 11:30pm and I just woke up, because, as soon as the order arrived, I skipped out of work early, went home, put them on the bed with no sheets, hopped in just to get a quick feel, and promptly fell soundly asleep for 5 solid hours on the case and under the cover.
It's quickly become apparent to me that I'm going to have to order the sheets, too. ~ Hampton

 The duvet cover is magnificent - I love it and can't thank you enough. it was immediately christinend by our 5# poodle/terrier who stole a corn cob which was twice the size of him, hah. What's great, is how forgiving Rough Linen is; the color along with the texture was no less for wear.

Plus, I have a husband whom I have to strategically place anything of beauty as he's like a bull in a china shop - not with this duvet cover, thank you for making such a beautiful piece of art that I get to use and enjoy with him.

Your crafstmanship and artistic abilities put FUN into Functional - this is one keepsake that I'll get to enjoy in my daily life and handdown after I'm gone (not like damn Waterford that just sits, or gets used once a year; maybe I should start using it daily, hummm...

I'd love to slip cover my world with your Rough Linen!
Thanks again, ~ Deb
