Summer is here and you just bought a new set of queen percale sheets to freshen up your bedroom from a long cold winter. As you remove them from the package you wonder how they fold the fitted sheet so neatly. When it comes to folding a fitted sheet it surely is not the same as folding a flat sheet. It can be every frustrating for those people who like to keep things folded and stored perfectly.  Do you every find yourself how do you really fold these sheets with the odd shape corners. Here are a few simple steps I found to folding a fitted sheet.
Folding a fitted sheet taken out of the dryer while it is still warm and not beginning to wrinkle a great deal is one important factor. If you like to hang your sheets out side to dry you may want to run a warm iron over before you start to fold it.
You will find it a lot easier to fold a fitted sheet on a flat surface like your bed or you can use a folding table.
Her we go lets fold our fitted sheet.  First you must keep in mind that the fitted corners have to be tucked into one another as part of the process. Put your hand into one corner of the sheet and feed that corner into the opposite corner. Example, feed the bottom right into the top right corner repeat for the other two corners then smooth material as flat as possible. If you folded as above you should have a rectangular shape having the pockets of the combined corners facing up the overlapping fabric lying flat against the folded sheet.
The next step is to fold the two sets of combined corners into one another which involves repeating the first step .Put your hands in one set of corners, insert the set into the other combined corners, picking the sheet up from the work surface with the sheet already folded in half making it easier to work with making the initial fold .The four corners are tuck in put on a flat surface a second time taking care to smooth the overlapping sections flat and make sure the shape is rectangle. This will help with the final fold of the fitted sheet.
Fold your rectangle shape into a square, overlapping the sections inside the square leaving the surface resembling a folded flat sheet. Continue to fold the fitted sheet to the size you like to fit in your linen closet. When you put your folded fitted sheet beside your flat sheet it will be difficult to tell them apart.
