Percale Sheets Fans

From time to time posters ask where to get percale sheets. LL Bean has some nice colors and some really cute patterns. I usually get solid colors,but these new patterns are really cute.

"Percale" means a thread count of 200 or over

I have the set with the buoy's on it on my wish list, I love it for my coastal decorated master! I was saving my Bean Bucks up and hoping for a 15% off sale which they offer now and then. Their sheets last forever and fit well.

@Desertdi I always thought that percale was a combination of cotton & polyester.

Boll and Branch has lovely sheets. The presentation is amazing, they box them beautifully. Recently they had a 20% off sale so I always go to sale section and then get the extra % off.

@Desertdi , I thought percale was 100% cotton. I will make sure I check next purchase. I am looking for a new set. My favorite sheet set just bit the dust. I find it so hard to find good percale. LLBean is on the list but I keep my eyes open for other deals. LM

@Lilysmom1 For anything I am going to sleep IN or ON...I prefer going to a store-with-doors. This might sound "gross"....but I give those items a sniff-test to make sure they don't have a "cargo-hold" aroma. di

@Desertdi , I picked up a set Friday. Nice cotton but the bottom sheet was too small for my bed. Back to the drawing board. I put buying sheets right up there with swimsuits. LM

@Lilysmom1 Can I add "ladies dress pants" to the list? I am 4'10"....and petite are too long, and extra-petite are too short in the rise. Cutting off "average" destroys the shape......

Fitted sheets are another struggle with me. I finally found an independent store that sold flat sheets separately from the "sets".....

and then they had the nerve to go out of business (!!) di

@Desertdi , the pants ipthing is a real issue. What a nuisance. I get it about altering 'long' pants and losing the shape.

100% agree about fitted. Can hardly find them separately and then they charge almost as much as a full set! LM
