I understand what you mean. I'll give it a shot next time I do the washing, but I think it's a matter of whether or not my (admittedly freakish) arms are long enough.Erana said:To put Duvet covers on more easily, place the duvet cover inside out over your arms, so that you are holding the outside corners with your hands. Then grab the duvet inside's corners through the covers' corners, and then you can just carefully pull it down over the duvet stuffings.Angerwing said:Exactly this. I'm 6" exactly, and I have a king sized bed. Doing the doona (or duvet, as others call it), I still have to use weights to pin down corners as I crawl around on the inside. As Erana said, after a certain point, height is mostly irrelevant.Erana said:I roughly fold a big blanket, then stand on something to sort it out. Between the fold and my increased height, I'm able to fold king sized duvets. Bedding can be big, so I don't think height really matters after a certain point.
If I have to use ingenuity to do it, when I'm taller than average everywhere in the world (with the exception of the Netherlands, the freakish giants), then I don't expect it's much different for people considerably shorter.
I'm not sure if I explained it well, but Fuck yeah, the Martha Stewart show. :3

How do midgets fold blankets? Furthermore, how do they put fitted sheets on their mattresses?

And the only episode of the Martha Stewart show I saw was the one where she teaches you how to make home-made knives out of everyday prison implements. Hurr hurr hurr!
