Don't worry, you're not alone. Many people use these terms interchangeably, but the truth is that they refer to two different types of bedding that serve different purposes.

 First, it’s important to consider the quality of your bedding.  Find a reputable bedding manufacturer that offers high-quality, affordable bedding.  High-quality bedding materials and workmanship are essential to ensure durability and comfort.  Custom bedding fabrics are also a great option for those looking for a unique and personalized touch to their bedding.

And finally, brushed cotton is for those looking for something in the middle in terms of cooling/heat-retaining qualities. To turn cotton into brushed cotton, the fabric undergoes a couple of extra treatments that result in the softest flannel-like bedlinen. While both percale and sateen sheets may take a few washes to become more supple and soft, a new set of brushed cotton bedding feels like you’ve slept in it forever. It is a great year-round option because it won’t warm or cool you down excessively.
