Sheets are great, no seams to contend with, often less than $10 and they wear well. I use them all the time and always have a stack on hand. I bought a dozen King size cotton sheets (more fabric to use) at $5 just lately. My son was with me and didn't understand what I was thinking. His comment "How many mis-matched sheets does one family need?" If hand quilting look for a cotton sheet with a lower thread count so the weave is not as tight. Save those 600 thread count sheets for machine quilted quilts where they work out perfectly.
