I absolutely love Costco flannel sheets! They are so thick, soft and cozy, they wash and dry beautifully. Made in Portugal - I was looking at the LL Bean catalogue and their sheets are also made in Portugal - I am sure they are the same manufacturer.
Unfortunately you have to buy a set and I know you are looking for singles - I wouldn't even bother with Sears, Zellers or Wallies - you might luck out at Winners or one of the other home stores and get a quality single. J |

Try The Vermont Country Store at www.VermontCountryStore.com or 802.776.5710 and I am NOT associated with them in any way. Some of the things they have will take you back! Some are quite amazing and unique in today's time.

I like Lands End or LL Bean - they are expensive but they last forever and they are soft forever. Also, Lands End has a return policy - if you don't like something for any reason you can return and get a replacement or money back - even if you washed it and don't like the way its wearing. Now you have given me a great idea.

I have switched to white on whites or whilte on creams for my Red Work. The flannel seems nice when you buy it but pills when washed. There doesn't seem to be any way to tell in advance. This was good LQS flannel that pilled the last baby quilt I did. Good luck on your quest!

I know I'm in GB but Ialways used NAPGUARD make, they still do them ,think some now have poly in them for cheapness .

I've bought Woolrich flannel sheets at Target and they seem to be OK. Seems to me they are a little thicker than others.

I just got clearance regular 150 bucks for 45 bucks (king size) from khols They are unbeleiveable! They are plaids in reds or blues but they are so nice I didn't care about the colors!

Thnak you for the site it is a great one

When you are looking for flannel sheets or flannnel shirts look for the 100% cotton and made in Portugal. The flannel is alway nice. Don't forget thrift stores, they are a good source. If the sheets still look and feel nice, then they are a huge bargain when you calculate the price per yard.

I like Land's End flannel sheets, though I have not had any new ones for years and so can't comment on current quality. But the nice thing is they list the weight of the flannel in their catalog. I've never really known what 5 oz. and 7 oz. refer to (weight of a square yard? of a yard at full width? not sure), but they are heavier than any other I have ever found.
