I desperately need a valance/panel combo for a 125" window but have no idea where to begin my search, or if they have anything out there this large?
If you buy short valances can you use them on one rod to decorate the window? Or can you tell that it would be a bunch of valances?
Tips, thoughts suggestions?

Has fabric for draperies that you can buy by the yard. Either make your own or have it done professionally. You could also buy a few store panels and sew them together...if done correctly with seams hidden, it could work.
The longest I have seen drapery panels from retail stores is 96".
For a valance, depending on the style, you could do individual sections. If the style calls for fullness (at least 2 1/2 times the width) it won't be noticable.
I made my mother a valance for her beach house that is 148" long in one piece. It was a biotch handling that much fabric.

I made my mother a valance for her beach house that is 148" long in one piece. It was a biotch handling that much fabric. I railroaded it to avoid seams which make putting them on rods challening. Depending on your fabric, this can be a sensible and less expensive option.
