And what colors go with pea green that won't make me little miss princess sparkle by the way? Don't ask.

I am not sure how to tell by looking at an online picture. If it is a company with good customer service, call and ask them. Eddie Bauer has some nice linens, and if you call their customer service they should be able to get the item and describe it to you.
Thread count doesn't matter as much on a comforter, but it does matter some. You don't want it to look as if it belongs on a bed at a cheap motel (or do you?)
As far as color-- I agree with Dani-- a tan or taupe, or khaki would look good with pea green.
That microsuede stuff is popular now, and it soft- I have seen it in tan / khaki color.
