@SilleeMeeI am not sure what my total is, but in my summer apartment, I have 3 only -  2 for summer and one for the "fringe" cooler months that I'm here.  In my condo, I think I have 4 sets, but at least there I have 2 beds!

 

It's been more than 10 years since I bought any new sheets, but new would be a want not a need.  Until I read a few years ago how much water it takes to provide us with cotton items (growing cotton, cleaning cotton, manufacturing the items, I didn't think of not buying things as a way I could participate easily in protecting the environment.  Who knew!!!!

Three sets of cotton percale and three polar fleece sheets.  One set each in cotton for the two extra bedrooms.  That's it.

I have way too many sets.  I love sheets and bedding, especially quilts,  in general.  We have five queen sized beds, so that is my excuse to buy more sheets.

I think its up to 5 which means queen size fitted sheet that is use with 3 sets of pillowcases, which I switch up at will

I love bedding, too, @Carmie. I have waaay too many blankets, covers, throws and too many sheets sets! Ran out of storage so I gave some of it away then ended up buying more.Woman Indifferent

2 sets for upstairs bedrooms. 1 set for downstair bedrooms. 2 and 2 - up and down. Rarely use the downstairs bedrooms.

I love linens, both for the table and for the bed.  I have several sets of sheets for each bed.  I use certain ones during certain times of the year.  I recently donated several brand new sets that I knew I would never use.  Barring a major catatrophe, I won't need to buy any more sheets in my lifetime.  I don't even look at sheets so that I avoid temptation.

I have more than enough.  14 sets all different colors.  8 sets are Northern Nights cotton with wrinkle defense.  6 sets are from Macy's Charter Club.   They are all superbly soft and cozy but overall NN gets the nod for most soft.  I change colors about every 2 weeks on average.  I have a gorgeous burnt orange set that took me forever to find (one of the Macy's) that I will probably leave on the bed nearly 2 months beginning in October.  I bought a second set of that burnt orange to have for future - just in case - because it was such a difficult find for me and I am crazy about the look.   I have just as many cotton blankets and lightweight quilts in all colors and designs to combine with my sheet sets.

Too many.  Embarrassing.
