This duvet cover, which looks kind of like an abstract of a spotted deer hiding behind a bush (kind of soothing), is different from most I have seen in that the fabric is qite different on the top and the bottom. The top is an almost canvas-like tight weave, which I am delightexd to find seems quite impervious to the claws of my cats, who visit regularly. The bottom is an off-white soft muslin-like fabric, which feels good on skin. I like the tangle-free effect of using a duvet without a top sheet undeneath, and this cover is great for that. Because of allergy issues, I washed it before using it for the first time, and it washed and dried very well, with minimal wrinkling.
