Have you thought about taking sunset photos and printing them on fabric for your quilt?

The first place I thought about was this one: http://www.skydyes.com/
Her fabrics are hand painted.

Here's another. This site searches over 200 online quilt shops. Enter sunset in the search box.
http://www.quiltshops.com/ Could also try sky or sunrise.

I made Lousiana Sunsets a few months ago, it's hard to describe the fabric I used, not exactly sunsets but looked like it. I think it turned out very well and the friends I made it for loved it. I posted a pic of it. Maybe will give you an idea. I bought the pattern and fabric in New Orleans at Mes Amies (spelling?) quilt shop.

I too am looking for fabric for this pattern and I haven't found any that I like yet. Will try the site listed....but I have sooooo many things in the works before this project. Just hoping I come across some along the way, that way WHEN I am ready, I'll have the fabric I need......Have never done an applique yet, so I'll have to practice and research it before I jump in, get discouraged, and give up!!!! Can't wait to see yours rburnitt!!!!
