[SidJames]

Folks,

I've been on trhe hunt for white or cream linen beds sheets & pillow cases similar to Irish linen

I've tried Jim Thompson & Central but no luck.

Can anyone advise me please?

Try going to a fabric shop and purchasing the cotton material that you desire. Many of them will have material that is wide enough for a king size bed so a seam is not necessary. Then once you select the material the shop usually can make them to your specifications. I even got them to make a flat top sheet which is virtually impossible to purchase here in Thailand. You will find the labour cost quite reasonable.

They say the the best ideas are the simplest.

That's an excellent suggestion!

Can you recommend a decent fabric shop?

Thank you shepsel

The hotel supply shop on South Pattaya Road has white linen bed sheets.

Pattaya Parent can you be more specific as to exactly where that shop is?

Thanks

Heading down from Sukhumvit it's on the left hand side just past the shop that sells the big teddy bears, or maybe a little farther down.

It's a while since I was last there.

Edit: 385 South Pattaya Road Tel: 038 422 288

This may be their website but it doesn't work http://www.pattayahotelsupply.com/

There's apparently also one on Soi Potisan - Horeca Intertrade according to Google

Index on Suk near the flyover for the highway to Bangkok has a great selection of bed sheets. Pricey, but that's the way it is here in Thailand. We got ours back home and brought them here. 800 thread count Egyptian cotton is sure nice...especially when bought the day after Xmas at a huge discount!

I am up in Chiang Mai, and I went to the area where many of the fabric stores are. I don't know Pattaya, so I cannot advise you where to go.

As suggested the hotel supplier on Pattaya Tai would be a good start, head down Pattaya Tai from Sukhumvit and it is on the left next to express laundry just before the Soi Khopi crossroad junction.
