Don't know if it's the "correct" way, but my MIL used to work at a wash and fold laundry. The way they did them was to put all 4 corners together, so you fold the sheet in 1/4ths wit the elastic all in one place, going the same way. If you're careful when you do that, you can actually smash the thing flat and fold it in 1/8ths so you can't tell it's a fitted sheet!

That is how I fold my fitted sheets!! (although King size are difficult, I have no problem with the twin size ones) I saw Martha Stewart on Oprah one day explaining how to fold them!! Makes it so much better then the ball/wad I use to do lol.

I fold in half, then half again..and so on...as long as they're folded and in the closet I don't pay any attention to it. No one sees them but me...ugh

I thought they were the same thing but was having a hard time picturing it with just words.
