That is indeed how most people in this country make their bed. I am an anomaly, since I can't sleep unless I am tucked into bed tightly. (It's a pressure thing). So I have, in order: mattress protector, bottom fitted sheet, top flat sheet, duvet in its cover, and one to three thin blankets, depending on season. I like as much weight on top of me as is possible.
You know that duvets come in different weights? They are rated by "tog", and a summer duvet is 4.5 tog, a spring/autumn duvet about 8 tog, and then you can join them both together for winter. Neither Richard nor I bother, though. He can control his body temperature perfectly even when asleep, and simply adds a blanket on the coldest nights. I use 101 thin layers and throw them off/put them back on when I get too hot/cold.
