These sheets are very pretty and feel good. We were looking for percale, and cotton, and that's what we got. After washing, we were afraid they weren't the right feel, but after sleeping on them the first night we were satisfied. They are a bit more wrinkly than I'd like but if it bothers me, I'll give in and iron them. They fit our large mattress well. We had a good laugh over the tag that says "bottom of sheet" because the pattern is light, and it IS hard to tell which side is the top and which is the bottom, but I bet some people think it means the bottom of the mattress! Don't be fooled!
