Pretty printed, patterned sheets

How about a vendor presenting a pretty patterned sheet set?  Flowers, stripes, dots, etc.

to go with a solid comforter? Northern Nights???

I agree on the patterned sheets, and can I add, I would love to see some percale for those of us who like crisp sheets.🌺

Re: Pretty printed, patterned sheets

hooray, yes!   I love Ralph Lauren floral sheets, and I love to mix the florals together and also to spread them among my solid sheets. 

 

I also think the percale sheets last longer and look better after they're  washed.

I would like something other than 'wrinkle defense', please.

Re: Pretty printed, patterned sheets

I'd like to see some pretty sheets too.  Pretty patterns and lots of different colors.  Seems like they have the same old solid colors all the time.  I'd also like to see flannel sheets come back.  I know many seem to like the fleece once now, but I still prefer flannel and when it's winter time, I would rather look at cozy, comfy flannel instead of the wronkle defense ones that were om the other day.

I have percale, printed sheets that are at least 25 yrs old.  They wear like iron and wash beautifully.  My sheets are line dried year round, even in the midwest.

Yes!  I thought the same thing when I watched a presentation of those TSV sheets.  The colors are nice, but I'd love to see some pretty patterns.

Re: Pretty printed, patterned sheets

It seems like printed, patterned sheets are out of favor now.  Stores mostly sell solids.  I did buy a set of microfiber sheets in Costco last month in a small muted print in gray.  I thought the print was good for a change but I prefer solids for the most part.  Easy to substitute pillowcases or a sheet from another set if necessary.

 

When I got married in 1973 the sheet patterns were loud and bright.  You never see those gaudy prints now.
