I won a few lovely auctions of mis-matched cases in beautiful light colors with such a nice feel to them. A nice dip in the wash and they are good as new. Actually better since you can't find them anymore! Don't mind my bare mattress..*s*!
Aren't those polka dots sweet? I've got 5 fabulous pink ones I won last night that I can't wait to put on the bed! BTW, if you know of any sources for new pretty sheets that don't cost a small fortune, please pass along the info!Next up..planning a quilt for my bed! I've never made a king size quilt before so this should be interesting. Summer time is hard for us to use the duvet since it feels like it weighs 20 pounds. I use just a sheet but poor hubby needs more, so nice quilt will be perfect for him! So what pattern to use. I've got a few choices narrowed down and I think I've almost made up my mind...more on that later!

While I agree there is something special about a freshly made bed with crisp, clean linens - I also like flannel sheets. When the high thread count cottons became available, it was easy for me to make the switch. In the winter, just add blanets. In the summer a sheet is just enough *s*
I love the freshness of crisp sheets. I did just buy some pretty ones for my daughter and they were really cheap, I just wish I could remember the name of the store. It was a bedding store and not Target....yikes my mind is blank...sorry. I love the pretty pillow cases. Can't wait to see what you decide on the new quilt.
I love your new linens. The polka dotted ones are adorable. I've got a Ca. King bed and to make a quilt for it is just crazy. I bought a white quilted conforter and then lay my quilts along the bottom for some color. Just the thought of making a quilt that size makes me cringe!!
I love your pillowcases. Those older cases hold up better than the ones you buy today that are made in China. I have several and the silky feel of them is wonderful. Use them and enjoy!
