Both linen and cotton make excellent bedding fabrics and share quite a few similarities — most notably their water-absorbent qualities and that refreshing, airy feeling. But there are quite a few differences as well, and being aware of them can make it easier for you to choose between the two.
Materials and Thread Count






There are many options to consider when choosing the right high quality bedding for your child's crib during the summer. From summer bedding to cot bedding and children's bedding, there are different types of high quality bedding that can provide comfort and support for your little one.
Flat Sheet
The flat sheet is the first covering over the fitted sheet. It's the layer that touches the body, providing a hygienic, easy to wash barrier between you and other bed coverings used for warmth and/or decoration. Luxury sheets can hang down the side of the mattress though traditionally they are tucked in all the way around for a more polished presentation.
For more affordable options, expensive cotton fabrics are often blended with lower-quality variants to manage costs. Check the label for the cotton composition before purchasing to ensure you know exactly what you’re getting.
