    I hate ironing. But I also think wrinkled sheets look crap. How do you have smooth sheets without ironing?

    Also, anybody have recommendations for what to buy in terms of fabulous crisp sheets?

    Damask linen is the best. Stays cool in summer warm in winter. B!+ch to iron though you only iron the folded bit.

    A visit to Spotlight for material and the local dressmaker can run up the seams.

    I followed Vultures thread with interest as she sought help in naming her business; ultimately called "The Good Sheet".
    I purchased sheets and a quilt cover set and am very happy with the quality and price and will buy more.
    I never iron but always line dry.

    I've never noticed how wrinkled they are. I've never ironed anything except work shirts

    People see your shirt no one can see your bedsheets.

    I find if you can get them straight out of the dryer and onto the bed, the pulling of them decreases sufficiently. I love target 500 thread count 100% cotton sheets for our airbnb
