Fitted Sheet Folding 101

Use the bed or a table. Fold the sheet in half with the top to the bottom. Tuck the top corner into the bottom corresponding corner. Left top corner to Left bottom corner. Top corners will be turned inside out. Fold the sheet in half so all corners meet. Again tuck the corners into each other, forcing one set of corners to be turned inside out. This will leave you with a bunched up corner area. To smooth it down fold in the longest side so the corner can lie flat. The short side can also be folded in. Fold the sheet again in half the long way. This should leave a long tips to fold into quarters and will look as nice at the flat sheet. Most of the time I just strip the beds, wash the sheets, dry them and put them back on the bed to save folding a set.

Ah! I’m glad I’m not the only one who goes out of my way to avoid folding a fitted sheet. I’ll have to try it your way, though!!
