no, not particularly good, but I liked them. It's the end of the bed, so I can still use them.

How many sets of sheets do most folks have? We use white flannel from The Company Store, which is cool in summer and warm in winter. We have the set we use, which we wash weekly. Then we have our "retired" set, to pull out if something happens to our main set. We also have one set (with monkeys!) for the guest bed, and some extra pillowcases. That's it. Having the world's smallest linen closet contributes to our non-sheet having.

I have two or three sets of cotton sheets and two sets of flannel.

We have about what you have, Robin, but right now it's a little bit more because we recently switched from a full to a king bed (and thus, inexplicably, have queen and king sheets). But pretty much we have the one set we usually use and the one set of flannel.

I am missing several of my pillowcases though. I am suspicious that they have gone walkabout as either gig bags or art storage containers during our most recent move. Which I know was almost a year ago, and we need to figure out where they are.

I have one set of flannel and three sets of cotton. That way I'm not obligated to wash them right away if I change the linens.

I have a lot, because I don't tend to throw sets away when they get worn out or stained, plus my mother and sister both like giving me sheet sets as presents for some odd reason.

I have two sets of flannel sheets, three and a half sets of cotton sheets (two fitted sheets that go with one flat), two odd fitted sheets and every so many odd flat sheets. But I only use the flat sheets on the guest bed and if I have to make a bed on the futon.

I finally got rid of the worn out/stained ones when I moved. The flat sheets that were in good shape got sent to the Sally Ann, the others got used as rags or drop cloths.

I have one set I use all the time- the non-knit beech bark ones (can't recall what they are called properly.) They get washed every 2 weeks. I also have a couple sets of flannel and one of generic cotton, but I don't use them much anymore other than for guests, cause I like the beech ones so much. They're very silky and thin.

It cracks me up that as I sit here at the computer, Devi is sitting about a foot and a half away, back to me, purring. Proximity makes her happy, I guess.

Yeah, that's us and towels. Since we had the attempted elopement thwarted, we had actual wedding presents and an actual wedding, but hadn't registered anywhere. So everyone just gave us towels. We had all these towels. I'm just now (coming up on our fourteenth anniversary) pretty much through them.

That's one of the things I'm looking forward to; buying fresh sets of matching linens. And buying linen. I love linen. It's probably my favorite fabric.
