Hi Avital - I think it might be a terminology problem. Here in the UK they are 
called Valence(d) sheets and are usually a fitted sheet with the ruffle
attached. They come in single, double and king size usually. Try 
www.argos.co.uk - they have plenty, as do most of the chain stores here 
(Littlewoods,
BHS, John Lewis etc) You can fit them semi-permanently onto the sprung base of 
the bed and use a separate sheet for the mattress.
