I never got the concept of a sheet is to hard to hand quilt through. I have used sheets as backing on several quilts and hand quilted. I had no issues at all. And the backs are holding up just fine. I also had quilted a baby quilt with flannel backing no problem. Maybe I am not using the same types of things that you did. When I started quilting no one told me #1. Points are hard #2. 1/4 in seams are important #3sheets and flannel are hard to hand quilt. Umm I just did it. My Quilts have no missing points, are hand quilting and I have used all the things some say not to do. Lucky? Maybe
