I would likely cover the foam with a pretty closely fitted cover before I put any other cover on it; that will help keep it from breaking down so fast. I'd use an old all-cotton sheet for that, if I could.
the foam and that cover I'd cover with whatever. Lay out the foam, lay old sheet over it, and try the comforter for 'slip'. It will likely slip more than on bare foam but I'd think there still might be
enough 'grab' there to make it workable. My guess is you will still
need a cleaner's bag to get the foam in/out, even with it covered with cotton.
Some poly in the sheet cover would make it slip into the cover more easily but would also increase the slip after the cover's on, which I'd think wouldn't be good.
As to design of the cover, I'd likely make an envelope cover that could be tucked to the back just an inch or two, and use the soft Velcro to fasten that.
though, piping in the perimeter seams will help give it enough shape to help with that skinny 2" edge. And piping's not hard, it just gets a bad rap. Oh, I'm thinking you're missing your zipper foot. Hmmm, piping in that case might be a hassle.
The denim will wear better than the comforter, simply because a twill
weave wears better than almost any other weave, and it's probably also heavier than the surface factor of the comforter. Less likely to pick up/show dirt. But it's not like you're a 6 year-old, and if I wanted the comforter, that's what I'd use.
