I need drapes and a duvet cover, & need to find a cheap place to buy some OR fabric.?

I moved into an apartment with seafoam green bedroom walls. I can't paint. I have all dark wood. I have a duvet, that needs a breathable duvet cover. I also need curtains for the windows. I have a $150 budget for everything. Where can I A) buy a quality yet inexpensive set/peices that could match, or B) where can I buy cheap fabric for such? I live in Milwaukee, but could go as far as chicago or could shop online.

Answers:
good luck
I did save my money and get something nice and dont through away you 150 dollars just because its cheap and matches doesnt mean you will really like it in the long run.
ld Wait and find something you really like and then get it.Layaway if necessary or put things down for birthday or Christmas gifts.

i get cheap fabrics at walmarts. here in Pa. they have tables of all kinds of material in the fabric/craft dept that sell for $1.oo a yard .
Sometimes Walmart has inexpensive fabrics in the fabric department . You may have to dig but every now and then you find something worthwhile
Rats-- I answered your question so well! and it disappeared!

Ok-- the short answer that isn't nearly as interesting!!
Dollar stores have sheets-- I got some in Queen size for $19.00 the set--a duvet cover is a giant pillow slip-- check out your friends for sewing knowledge-- might be a really good thing-- not quite a lost art but it's limping along!
I wish you good luck in your search--
You could always try Goodwill, Savers, second hand shops for your curtain material. Heck you live close to Madison, Madison has all these wonderful stores,
Most any of the fabric stores will have clearance and remnant areas at next to nothing prices. Walmart and department stores are good about having low cost fabric, but the width on the bolts is 36 - 45 inches. You would need the extra width of the upholstery and drapery fabrics so fewer seams would be visable. You might check on ebay or similar under upholstery and decorater fabric for sale. Many times upholstery shops and individuals will post items at the end of a season or to get rid of the end of a bolt. Carolina Mills used to have a factory outlet store in Branson, Mo. that always carried beautiful fabrics at very low cost. Good luck!
try to make them your self go to dollar store and buy sheets sew two together and make a cover for your duvet, then split sheets sew up the side and fold top for header all are straight seams
