I've just purchased new bed linen for my kids and the quilt is constantly dropping into it's cover. They find it really frustrating and complain ALL the time. Any ideas to prevent that from happening?

Yes, you need quilt clips. Like $2 at BBB.

if you have the patience to do it, or you have someone that could do it, sew ribbons or something like that to each corner of the quilt, and each corner of the quilt cover. a one time investment.

you ties the corners together when you put the cover on the quilt.

or just use safety pins (sturdy ones) at the corners...

I would be scared of that. I had tried a safety pin on dh's quilt, in place of a button, and it opened one night. I would be more scared to do that with a child

The clips would be easier but I totally love this!! What an innovative idea!
Question is, what do we do until I find the time to sew them on....... Confused
