How to Buy Sheets to Fit a Pillow-Top Mattress Published April 29, 2010 | Updated June 11, 2015 Everyone knows that pillow-top mattresses are designed for additional softness and comfort. Due to the padding, pillow-top mattresses have more depth than regular mattresses. The height of the padding varies, but generally, manufacturers make pillow-top mattresses in depths varying from 7 to 22 inches. Specially made deep-pocket sheets for pillow-top mattresses are available; however, it is important to know the depth of your mattress before purchasing sheets. Here's how to buy the best sheets to fit your pillow-top mattress. Shop Deep-Pocket Sheets ▸ Take MeasurementsPlace a piece of cardboard between the mattress and the box spring. Place a second piece of cardboard on top of the mattress. Measure the distance between the pieces of cardboard. This is the depth of your pillow-top mattress. Search for the SheetsSearch for sheets in the size of your pillow-top mattress.
Sheet sizes are available in twin, twin-XL, full, queen, California king, and king. It's important to get the sheets that are meant for your exact mattress; twin-XL mattresses are longer than twin mattresses, and California king mattresses are longer than king mattresses. Choose a Type of Fabric and Thread CountThe higher the thread count, the smoother the sheets will be, but that can come with a higher price tag. Bed sheets are available in a variety of fabrics, from cotton to satin. A current trend is microfiber sheets, which have the feel of high-thread-count sheets but at a lower price point. Shop for Deep-Pocket SheetsDeep-pocket sheets are meant for pillow-top mattresses and are available in three depths: 7 inches to 14 inches (standard), 15 inches (deep), and 16 inches to 22 inches (extra deep). Find Fitted SheetsFitted sheets have elastic on the sides that hold the sheets in place. They're available with elastic on all four sides, elastic on the four corners, or elastic on two sides.
Sheets with elastic on all four sides fit pillow-top mattresses better. Consider Other OptionsIf you are unable to find fitted sheets with the appropriate depth, consider using straps with sheets for regular mattresses. Straps on each of the four corners will keep the sheets in place. You can also use flat sheets that are one size larger than your pillow-top mattress and tuck the sides under the mattress. The future is now.. More Than You Want To KnowIt's important to compare mattress sizes before you buy a bed, and understanding bed and mattress sizes are both critical when it's time to make a quilt or buy sheets and other types of bedding. There are no standard mattress depths.If you're making a quilt for your own use, it's much easier to consider all of the bed size what-ifs. But if the quilt is a gift, you may not be certain which type of bed it will cover. When that happens, consider designing a quilt that fits a queen size mattress, the most popular bed size.
Many quilters make quilts for national and local fund-raising groups. Others sew quilts that will be donated to projects such as Quilts of Valor, a group that gives quilts to U.S. soldiers. There are hundreds of other groups that distribute quilts to children and adults. Be sure to follow each group's instructions carefully when you make a comfort quilt. You may need to keep the quilt within a specific size range, and in some cases, the group may tell you which fabrics and other materials are suitable.Although knowing mattress sizes is important when you make a quilt, consider some of the variables before you determine the quilt's final dimensions.
