Target sheets -- again

i just took delivery on Shabby Chic sheets from Target, primarily because mamapinky0 likes them. I didn't get the gray paisley ones I wanted because they have not been available for a long time now, so I settled on a tiny pink/blue flower design. Before I wash them, tell me what you think of Target's Threshold linen/cotton blend set. Do they really soften like the lovely SC percales?

We purchased a few sheet sets consisting of linen/cotton blend for the grandchildren's room.

Are they soft and comfortable after a few washes? Yes.

Be careful when washing. If you wash in hot water and dry in hot dryer, they shrink. The sizes are not generous; so after many washes, like ours, they are no longer suitable for a Queen mattress.

Pat I don't have Targets cotton linen blend..but what brushworks says about the dryer is good advice. Linen should be air dried or machine dried only half way than hang to dry.

Thank you Minnie for the info. I went to Target yesterday and picked up 2 packs of paper and some notecards. I didn't get the embelishments since I am using this to send cards to the military and did not want it to say "I love you". I also bought a rolling duffle bag for all my "stuff" for $13.98, on sale.

i was at West Elm tonight. I got a $250 linen duvet cover marked to $80 and another 20% off. Now, I would NEVER pay $250 for anything like that, but 65 is a great deal IMHO. They also had linen sheets in their clearance and super nice blankets. Anything .97 or .99 is another 20% off. Gonna be cozy around these parts tonight! FYI - these covers have sturdy ties at each corner and super nice buttons. Also, although one side has stripes, the other is a nice tan.

If anyone ever thinks the Laundry Room is a clique or snooty, go read some auto forums. I have belonged to both VolvoForums and BimmerFest but do not participate in either anymore because of personalities and bad attitudes. Awful. These are premium brands and should have halfway rational posters but every thread turns into a pissing match. The Laundry Room is delightful in comparison!

Target has cancelled CA King sheets. Most of the western USA has CA King, not standard/Eastern King. I cannot understand why they did this? :( Thanks for the info though!

My sheets say they are made in Bahrain, so we'll see. Washed twice yesterday in hot wa and Purex because no oils yet, will sleep in them tonight. Washing "mattress pad" now in hot wa and Tide w/Bleach powder -- yum-eeeee.
