[quote=Anonymous]The quality of the cotton is more important than the thread count. You want pima or Egyptian cotton, as they are a longer "staple". Shorter staple cottons are scratchier. Sort of like the difference between cheap wool and merino or cashmere. Percale is supposed to last longer than sateen. My mom gave us some hotel sheets from JCP that are super thick and pretty soft. They are probably the closest to my grandmother's ancient sheets. And if I were to iron them regularly, they would probably get even softer. Not sure if they still have the same line now though. If you like flannel sheets, the Lands End 6 oz flannels are excellent.[/quote]
