king size bed sheets
Lulu & Georgia's Aja Tilghman says: 'Bedsheet material choice really depends on preference. Linen is a great light and airy option that is exceptionally versatile and adapts to all seasons - keeping you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It gets softer over time while maintaining its beautiful natural elegance.
A cot quilt insert, often made from high-quality fabrics like cotton or bamboo, offers a gentle and breathable surface for young ones. The insert's design usually involves a quilted pattern, which not only adds aesthetic appeal but also provides additional cushioning. The padding is carefully measured to ensure it doesn't overly soften the cot, thereby maintaining the recommended firmness for infant sleep.
The 19th century saw the invention of the cotton gin. This machine quickly and easily separates cotton fibres from their seeds which revolutionised cotton production. Thus, the cotton sheet was born. This was the start of a new industry. It became much easier to produce cotton than flax and that in turn made it a cheaper product. Ultimately cotton became the popular choice for bedding, though the name bed linen stuck.
