On a surface as large as your bed, sometimes you don't want a full pattern. For a queen bed, that's over 33 square feet of pattern, which can overwhelm just about any design scheme you've got going. At the same time, if you wanted just plain solid bedding, you wouldn't be looking in the Area area. Area's Stitch sheets and pillowcases are soft and calm, with lines of contrasting stitching along the top edge of the sheet and the open end of the pillowcase, so they're interesting without being overpowering.
