I live in So CA. I have a fair amount of southwest fabric. I don't use it for decorating. We go to AZ, NM and CO occasionally. I want to make a quilt reminding me of our trips. I have some fabrics that are landscape and some that have pottery, etc. on them. I haven't made the quilt yet......just too many ufos to finish.
Try equilter.com. They usually have quite a few and I've often seen Kopelli (sp??) fabrics there.

I live in Minnesota, but my husband does a lot of backpacking and Sierra Club service trips in the southwest, so we have a fondness for southwestern fabric designs. But I will admit, I don't like the cartoon-y look of some of them. I've made a couple of wall quilts with southwestern themes and used more subtle designs in them.

And are you actually in the southwest?

I currently have about 2 yds left from a former project and I do live AZ and have for the past 22 yrs. I fell in love with the southwest and it's decor back in the 80's and haven't tired of it yet.

Well, it's not really in my stash because I'm making a commissioned quilt with it and will use all the scraps to piece into the backing! I do adore the turquoise marble fabric though, and terracotta looks so yummy with it!
