Not only is he boring enough to actually fold fitted sheets, he is boring enough to think anyone else cares enough to learn how to do it...

I have often wondered how it was done. :U Don't laugh, we manage a couple of holiday units and making beds etc come with the deal and these sheets are total pain in the butt, except when on the bed.

Sad as it sounds, my 21 yr old son is a star at folding fitted sheets. When done, I cannot distinguish between the flat and fitted. Mind you, once his bed is made it's not made again for a couple of weeks :(

Yes, why would you bother.

That said, the vid is a pretty good eg. of technical instruction.

I've watched pro turners on DVD who've done worse.
