I’ve redecorated my bedroom and I’m looking for the perfect set of flannel sheets and duvet cover to complete the look.

I was happy to see [this](http://www.thecompanystore.com/parent.asp?product=eu32x&dept%5Fid=3003) design, because I’d been searching for weeks without finding anything close to what I wanted, and the willow was very close to perfect for the decor. Unfortunately, when I called, they said the size and color I wanted had been cancelled, was not available, and would never be available. Then they laughed at me, a demonic tongue shot out of the phone, and blood geysered from my cat’s anus.\*

I’ve googled, I’ve yahooed, I’ve shoppingmalled, and I’m running out of places to look. Any ideas?

The linked design gives you an idea of what I’m searching for. My ideal checklist: good quality flannel, a darkish green color (not hunter’s), and a simple, monochromatic-or-medium-contrast floral or botanical pattern.

I’m a little surprised that I’d be having such difficulty coming up with something good, but I haven’t found anything even remotely close to my objective. Thoughts from more experienced bedding buyers?  
\*Sorry, just some poetic exaggeration. I have no idea if the tongue was actually demonic.

Lands’ End has a nice selection of flannel bedding: [here](http://landsend.com/cd/index/fp/0,,65232,00.html?sid=2397142545591131000#23770).

Believe it or not, you might try Costco. I’ve purchased some very good quality and nice looking flannel sheets from there at very reasonable prices.

I’m NO expert, but you might try a place like [overstock.com](http://overstock.com). Some of those places are where the odd lots end up.

I second the Land’s End reccommendation - I don’t know if they have a pattern you’d like, but I’ve been extremely happy with the flannel sheets I got from them a few months ago. They haven’t pilled yet, at least, and they’re very nice.
