Cotton Blend Bed

I know it's not very cool, but I prefer cotton/polyester bed sheets to all cotton. Only problem--the blends all seem to be inexpensive sheets in boring solid colors or timid floral patterns. Do any of the high end linen manufacturers make sheets in cotton/poly?

I have been happy with Anna's Linens, I hope you have a store in your area, but they do have an on-line store. Stroud's should also have some cotton/poly blend sheet sets.

to seasons. Light sheets with cotton blankets in summers and cozy blankets with luxury bed spread in winters will make your bed simply outstanding ...

My mother in law wants me to sew a hem arround the edge of this bed spread and it is huge.. I"m not sure how to do it. I have hemmed fleece and stuff but not this fabric.. I think it is a poly/cotton blend.. She does want me to use any of the quilt binding on it so I'm bumfuggled here... Please Help
on correction she doesn't want me to use any binding on it..

Do a simple mitered hem:

Do you have enough fabric to do at least a 1/2" wide miter (is the fabric given at least 2" wider and longer than the finished size needs to be?)

I bought $75 100% cotton sateen sheets from Bed Bath & Beyond, and after one wash the sateen finish had disappeared even though it said the sheets were machine washable. The sheets are also excessivley wrinkly and I have long hair, so any hair that falls out while I'm sleeping clings to the sheets even after washing. I have really long, thick hair, so there's a lot of hair collecting on the sheets and I have to individually pick them out (gross!). My other polyster-cotton blend sheets don't have the same problem, but I've heard that 100 percent cotton sheets are better (they're certainly more expensive). So what's the deal? Why am I paying more for sheets that hold up worse? Is there a type of cotton I should be looking for? Or should I just stick with the cotton-polyster blend? I don't want to spend a fortune on sheets that will end up having the same problem.

Did you save your receipt for the sheets? I'd write the company a polite letter of complaint. Maybe they'll reimburse you or give a new different type of sheet.

Cotton-polyster blend holds up fine. Get 'em at Target, KMart or Wal-Mart. Wait 'til they have a White Sale.

What NOT to buy: flannel sheets (you get real sweaty and they make a lot of lint in the dryer); and silk or satin sheets, because you slide off them and they are expensive to clean.

Hope that helps!

I am on a tight budget and looking for bedding for my queen bed. The last set we bought was a bed-in-bag and poly/cotton blend and it died very quickly (bought at Sears). I'm willing to go with just a comforter and shams to save $ but I'm afraid if I go polyster again it will wear out. Should I go with cotton and spend more in order to get more wear out of it? Does anyone know of a place I can get a set for appx. $50 or less?

Go here, great deals and real cheap postage
