This is a wonderful post and fascinating information. Like Rachel's mom, I'm into linen everything! But for bed sheets, I like high thread count, 100% cotton, laundered and ironed at home, feels and smells heavenly when your head hits the pillow! I used to stitch up linen tea towels - super easy, no seams!
Linen is my absolutely #1 favorite fabric, but unless you have really good linen, it’s a complete nightmare. When my grandmother passed away, the only thing my mother wanted was her massive collection of table linen, some of which has been handed down to me.
Thomas Ferguson in Ireland makes the absolute best linen today: it’s heavy and thick and gets to be so soft. I can’t get enough! (And the prices are reasonable for the insane quality.)
My mom is into linen but I’ve never realized that there’s so much variation in quality. Now I know where to go when I want to invest. P.S. I love your 10” armoire. & lol at Carrie Bradshaw voice.
