These pillow cases are SO. SOFT. They are a nice thick material that doesn’t show the color of the pillow through if there is any writing on them. I just ordered some sheets that were on the thinner side and after getting these extra pillow cases I went on the hunt for the same but the sheets and to no avail! Wish they had an option for a set, but if you’re in need of some extra pillow cases, these are the ones!
