Fabric Choices for Bed Sheets
Care and Maintenance
Patterned bedding - Keep patterned linens simple, with minimal neutral or earth tone colours that will blend well with the rest of the colours in your bedroom. If your pattern is too busy or too loud, it will clash with the any other patterns you have, curtains, rugs, throws, etc.
Cotton Bed Sheets Vs. Linen Bed Sheets: Which Are Better?
Bed Sheets


And finally, brushed cotton is for those looking for something in the middle in terms of cooling/heat-retaining qualities. To turn cotton into brushed cotton, the fabric undergoes a couple of extra treatments that result in the softest flannel-like bedlinen. While both percale and sateen sheets may take a few washes to become more supple and soft, a new set of brushed cotton bedding feels like you’ve slept in it forever. It is a great year-round option because it won’t warm or cool you down excessively.
Extra Lightweight duvet inserts are perfect for those who like the feeling of being almost non-existent. Extra Lightweight duvet inserts are great for warmer climates or for people who tend to sleep hot. Extra Lightweight duvet inserts provide a thin layer of insulation without feeling too heavy or suffocating. An extra Lightweight duvet insert is also a great option for layering with other bedding during the colder months.
Microfiber Sheet Quality


MICROFIBER Microfiber sheets are known to be extremely comfortable and warm. These sheets are made from tightly woven synthetic fibers, which make a soft and durable fabric. They are commonly made from either nylon polymers, polyester, or wood pulp, creating a thin yet strong linen.
History


NEW! Your go-to breathable sheets, year-round.
Cotton is a staple fabric spun from the fibers of cotton plants. People around the world have been cultivating it for thousands of years. One of the earliest bits of cotton is at least 7,000 years old and was found in Mexico. In Egypt and Pakistan, people were weaving cotton thread into clothing in 3,000 BC. And in the 18th century, the British first found a way to spin cotton into textile with machinery.
Usually a flat bed sheet is overlocked around the edges to form four seams. One of the seams is wider than the other three and helps with orienting the sheet correctly on the mattress. The wider seam goes at the head end of the mattress. Sometimes the sides do not have seams, but are finished with the selvedge only. When one makes a bed, the patterned or monogrammed side of the top sheet may be placed facing up, or facing down, in which case the top edge may be folded towards the foot of the bed to expose the design.
