I just bought two king flat sheets at an estate sale this weekend, real high quality feel to them. I paid 1.00 per sheet. I plan on making pillowcases and little girl pillowcase dresses and crib sheets. So as you might not make a quilt out of it, there is still money to be made.
A word to the wise, bedbugs are on the rise in America, If you bring it in your house, wash in hot water immediatly and be sure to run it through a good hot dryer.
