Ben 10 curtains

I've promised to redecorate DS's room this summer - with a Ben 10 theme! First problem is that I can't find any curtains online that are wide enough to fit the window. It's 75 inch wide with a 50 inch drop. Any ideas where I could look? Failing that I could attempt to make some (eek!) but haven't been able to find any material either :(

Can you find duvet covers? They might be adaptable into curtains. Depending on the size, you might only need one as you can use both sides of it iyswim - tack some ready-made blackout linings on the back and you're done Grin

Thanks - yes I'd thought of that, even though it may be beyond my (very limited) sewing skills, but all the duvet covers seem to have the picture going top- down and I'd need to put it on it's side IYSWIM?

could you buy 2 sets and sew 2 together for each side?
