About Me

My photo
Hi there, I am Mary Nell and I live in the Ozarks. I live on a farm which is my own little piece of Heaven. I love to craft, quilt and create. There is always something new going through my head that I see that I want to try to make or design. While quilting is a long standing tradition here it is something that I am fairly new at. I hope that on this blog you will find something that will spark your interest.and you too will want to sit down and make something for your loved ones. But once you do I can tell you that it can lead to a serious condition. There is no cure. Once you start it is something that you just can't stop...Enjoy!

Primitive quilting or Rustic quilts

I have gotten so that I just love Primitive quilts especially those made with old clothing.  Today I found a blog that talks about Tea Staining and how to do it.  I am posting the link here and I hope that you all enjoy reading it as much as I did.  I am working on a quilt now with  a 10 in finished striped block of a little boys Daddys shirts.  I will post picture when I am done.  But I intend to try this method to give them a little more rustic appeal for a cowboys bedroom!   This is my inspiration found on pinterest and pinned to my quilting board.
