So far the flannels I use haven't "pilled"..I rather like the term dibbles, tho
. I can't stand sheets that get those "dibbles"..Yuk, yuk, yuk!! I confess I have a wee lil ocd with my bed sheets..don't like wrinkles, no dibbles, and like the covers to be folded back "just so"..no wonder I have insomnia! Thankfully dh could sleep thru a hurricane! I have told him if I was him I would probably put a pillow over my face and hold it there for a bit...just enough to get me still and asleep (disclaimer, I am not advocating slight suffocation as a remedy for insomnia). I'm just lucky dh is nicer than I am.
