These sheets are not flimsy or thin. They are not “see through”. They are a nice medium weight cotton. They are a bit longer than a standard full size flat sheet measuring At 81 x 108”. They have been stored in a clean , smoke free environment and have no bad stains or issues. There is no moldy smell. They were stored in a bedroom drawer with cedar planks and lavender sachets. One sheet has a tiny stain as pictured but will most likely come out in the wash. No thinning or stains or tears. Minimal fade. The border pattern is on both ends of the sheet.
