How do I get curtains for a big window?

Filed Under curtains 

Dr. Andrews asked:


I want curtains like they have at the hotel where it blocks out all the sunlight.

My window is huge though, about 7 feet wide, and about 6 feet high.

What curtain dimensions do I need? Any tips on anything about curtains, including installation, would be useful.
