I have bought quite a bit on line if you PM me I can send you a few listings just dont have them readily availble to type in here. I use a lot of it on many different things. I just bought a SW clock for my dining room and notice the curtains dont go so bought a beautiful print of indian baskets at Hobby Lobby and am currently making them. Also did placemats from different prints.

I have not one square inch of SW fabric in my far NE stash. :lol:
|
I have some and I am in the midwest. I also have Native American, African, Asian, and Middle Eastern fabrics.

I have several pieces of Southwest fabric! I'm using some in a memory quilt I'm making. Other pieces are finding their way into items in our living room...it's decorated in Native
American and wolves. |
I live in New Mexico, and I don't have much SW stash left. I've used so much already, and still will buy.

I have a lot of it. I also have quite a few southwest machine embroidery patterns too. Chili peppers are my thing.

I also would like to make an Aborgianal theme quilt. They have lots of it at Wally World. Put on to do list. I have a bag with the southwest themed in it & pattern but life & housekeeping keep getting in my way.

I have many Native geometric style prints. I dislike that anything with an Indian print on it is called South West because There are Indian tribes everywhere. A little research by the fabric designer would be nice. But I love prints with Plains beadwork (not many of those) if it is done correctly. There are many prints called South West that show people dressed in a mix of different tribal clothing or a mix of actual South West items and Plains and then it's called Navajo. I am not making Fabric a political issue.....just my observations about the Native American/SouthWest lines. So I pretty much stick to the general geometric patterns I find here and there.
