Flannel. Shoot, I’m still wearing flannel jammies with my flannel sheets a lot of nights (sleeping with the windows open may be a factor there). The percale sheets come out of the closet for a brief fling in August. Certainly helps the percale ones live forever.

Well… since it is JUNE-uary… the flannel. yep. definitely! I removed our winter blanket a couple of weeks ago, and had to pull it back out. Grrr…

To me, it’s more about the comforter than the sheets. I use high-thread-count cotton sheets in any weather … because I have a really nice lightweight goose-down comforter that just seems to give me more warmth when I need it in cool temperatures, and gives me more breathability when it’s warmer out (though sometimes when it’s REALLY warm, I do need to stick my feet out from under).

If you have a really good all-season comforter, I think the sheet question is irrelevant.

Hubby doesn’t like flannel or I swear I would use them all year round!

Opt for a dual sided electric blanket for winter months.

Oh, and first warm day here since Mother’s day…I’m sensing a trend..since it’s FATHER’s day!

Silk. Slick, cool, sumptuous silk.

And then change the damn things every day because it’s so freaking HOT and I sweat like a horse at night.

Cotton! Soft, silky Egyptian cotton! All year long. If you want warmnth, you add blankets, but against my skin I want cotton.
