Looks nice, but every time you go to bed you have to untuck everything...I used to do hospital corners too.  Now I take the sides of the flat sheet and comforter together while I stand on the side of the bed and give them a toss across the bed.  I'm usually able to do it in one try so the bed's made in 2 seconds and I don't have to untuck anything at bedtime.  P.S. My German descent wife likes to steal the blankets like she's annexing Poland in the spring so I "cheat" the blankets over to my side by about a foot so that when she yanks them over I still have my fair share...it only took me 12 years to figure this out too...don't tell her though or the jig is up!

Not to be totally OCD, but I would have folded one edge of the pillow case over the pillow and tucked in both ends on the same side of the pillow kind of the way my mother folds cabbage to make stuffed pigs in the blanket :) However, very nice bed making.. Really like the use of the "elbow" grease, literally.
