I manage to get mine into a reasonable shape, then make sure the folded edge is facing out when I put it in the linen cupboard.

We have a BIG bed (bigger than Queen)........ I don't think my arms are long enough to use this method of folding!

Some of my fitted sheets have elastic around all four edges making them impossible to fold properly but I don't worry too much because once they;re stretched over the mattress they look fine. However they don't look so fine in the linen closet.

Very neatly done.

I usually roll mine up to store them.

Hmmm, I may try that :-D

My problem will be finding a clear surface to finish the folding on :-0

Yes, Bob, but it's not necessarily 'clear', and quite often has a cat on it.
Said cat would come over to see what I was doing, and interfere!!!

...one thing I can't stand is cat fur on my sheets :-(
(cats sleep on the duvet, not IN my bed)
