I would keep the thread count as low as possible, and make sure that it is 110% cotton. It seems to me that the blended sheets tend to pill more than cotton. (But, in this area I am not an expert). the higher the thread count, the more difficult to hand quilt, and I am thinking that the high thread count is what causes a problem for long arm quilters. <wave>
