I fold only when changing for seasons otherwise I just pull them from the dryer and put right back on the bed most of the time. Sometimes I do need to go for a color change though ;-)

Yes, I fold my sheets.
granny used a bottle had water in it an she would sprinkle water on what ever she ironed. Simpler times i guess

Great idea. Why didn't I think of that.

Folding helps keep the wrinkles at bay besides keeping the sheets on the shelf... you don't have to duck when opening the linen closet.

I fold and put in pillowcase also. See if I can explain this way of folding the fitted sheets - take the two shorter ends (top & bottom) and tuck one end inside the other; then fold the sides in to make a rectangle and then fold as usual. Make any sense?
