Custom Bedding Twin, Full, Queen, Dorm, & Bunkie

Duvet:  Our duvets are reversible.  Duvets have two sides, and designed to have an opening of some type for inserting a filler/comforter if you wish.  There are many design styles to accommodate the opening.  

A duvet typically consist of two pieces, center panel and side panel. The center panel is the piece that lays on the top part of mattress, the piece that hangs down the side is the side panel. The top of a mattress are standard sizes for all brands. What is different is in the depth or thickness of a mattress.  The depth of mattress can be 6inches to 21 inches or more. This is why a standard duvet, one size fits all will not fit properly.  And of course we all try and compensate for this by buying the next size larger.  The problem with buying the next size largeris now the skirt decking is too big and will not fit properly on top of the box springs. This is why Whistle Stop bedding, is custom made upon ordering.  

The side panel of the duvet should always be long enough to overlap the top of the skirt by several inches.  When ordering please provide us with the depth/thickness of your mattress. Measure the side thickness.  We will add the appropriate adjustments.

When selecting the duvet type bedding it will most often require a skirt.  The skirt is often referred to as a dust ruffle.  The bed style will determine whether a skirt is required. No skirt is usually required with the captain's style (drawers) or a trundle style.  A drop length of 14-16 inches is a standard length with most premade bedding.  But we all know, the standard drop length seldom fits, either the skirt is too short and in some rare cases too long.  We will need your drop length for the skirt.  please measure from the top of the box springs to the floor.

We have designed our duvets to be reversible and equally designed on both sides. We have several styles and designs for our duvets as well as skirt styles. Below are example of our duvets.  

Many of our designs include a border around the center panel.  The side that has the opening for inserting a filler can be done in several ways.  We can leave an opening at the top, this type has a custom button closure or you may have ties.  Next style is the horizontal opening.  This style is designed by dividing the duvet into 3rds, then we use one fabric for the top 1/3, then a horizontal opening with a custom button closure, then we select another fabric for the bottom 2/3's. Another style is the vertical opening, this means a fabric is selected for 2/3's to the left of the vertical opening and a coordinating fabric for the 1/3 to the right. This style has a button closure and it runs vertical from top to bottom.  It is very unique and different. The different styles can be seen by viewing the photo gallery.  For more detailed information, pricing, and styles please email us for the most current information.  We will provide you with our price list and photo examples of styles. Some of this information can be found pricing section.,, please email us for the most current pricing for custom orders.

This is the border style, with the opening at the top, both sides of the duvet are finished making it reversible.

 Bedspread style

 Bedspread:  A bedspread style is usually one sided, has a center panel the part that lays on top of the mattress and a side panel which is the skirt.  The side panel/skirt attachment is usually floor length.  The skirt can be a tailored straight skirt, pleated or gathered. We split the skirt at the foot on each side to accommodate a foot borad bed rail.  If you do not have a footboard, you will need to let us know, the split is then not required. So no raw edges are exposed on the back side we line the back of the center panel.  Other options is to line the back with a soft minky fabric rather than lining, this is extra. Another option is to design the center panel much like the duvet providing an opening for inserting a filler.  Remember on a bedspread style the filler can only be the size of the center panel and will need to be cut to size. The opening on the bedspread style is always at the top.  We can use custom buttons or ties to secure the opening. We will  cut the filler/comfort to the size of the center panel for you.  The biggest difference between the duvet and bedspread is the skirt is attached to the bedspread center panel, and a duvet requires a separate skirt.

We have several styles of skirt attachment, a gathered single skirt,  a gathered single skirt with a band or a ruffle at the bottom, or a double skirt.  We can add trim or a ruffle to the top layer of the double skirt styles.  Much like a duvet piping  or trim can be added around the inside center panel edge, and piping, trim or a ruffle can be added to the outside edge of border where the skirt attachment joins.  (minky backs and fillers are extra)
