I may not be of much help, but you my want to consider linen if you sleep hot. I made the sheet sets for my bed (wasn't the cheapest thing I've ever done but, the bed is an odd size)
Linen is hardy and sleep cooler than cotton. The only issue you might have is it looks lived in. My bottom sheets is 8oz linen, so pretty heavy and spreads out well on the bed without wrinkles. The top is 5oz which means I don't need to use a blanket except in winter. Pillow cases are a bit of a weird mix of cotton, linen and silk (silk is for me...lol)
https://cultiver.com/collections/sheets-sets This was one of the companies I was looking at. They don't look bad, they are using a softened linen (as I also did) I came out a bit cheaper making what I made but sometimes thats going to be the case.
They use 1.65gsm or about 5oz linen which is fine for most people. I went with 8 on bottom because I was being bougie...lol
