Rustic Shower Curtains
It is always interesting to go for an adventure. If you like visiting the mountains, you will definitely find lodges that someone can rest in. There are different trees to look at and animals to admire. Rustic shower curtains are made of pictures of the wilderness. Most mountain lodges have these type of bathroom curtains. They beautifully complement the decor of the lodge.
Rustic shower curtains are available in different patterns. These may be those containing the bear, the moose, the fish, the elk and the pine cone. These are imprinted against a wonderful backdrop that makes the fabric admirable. These curtains will bring you good memories of the wild as you have a bath. You may add other accessories to match the curtains.
The curtains are available in different materials. The materials are usually used together with a vinyl liner to prevent them from becoming wet. There are different colors, designs and textures to choose from. The Internet is a good source of information. It can allow you to view the curtains from different designer companies. Each type has its own specifications and cost.
These curtains can be customized to suit the decor of your home. If your are creative and experienced, you can buy fabric and make your own curtains. You can go wild with different ideas to suit your taste. Rustic shower curtains will provide the privacy needed when one is bathing. They will also prevent water from splashing all over the place. They add life and elegance to any bathroom in which they are used.

Flour sacks, or feed and grain sacks, sewn together with rough edges showing. You can find them at estate sales, auctions, yard sales. Or, you might do an image search on one of the better search engines (like dogpile.com) and find some great old designs.
Or, if you could find some old old catalog pages, including the covers, of Sears & Robucks catalogs, these could be printed out and made into iron-ons, on an unbleached muslin or natural cotton material. Good old Sears catalogs, a staple in the outhouses of yesteryear!!
Good luck!

You have some really creative ideas. I think that you could do a patchwork quilt shower curtain, you just have to choose the right fabrics and design in order to get the rustic look. For this, the "right" fabrics would include homespuns (woven plaids, checks or stripes) and muslin, both relatively inexpensive fabrics. You have two options with the homespuns – either cut everything very carefully to keep the lines straight, or deliberately cut them very noticeably off grain. If you do this, you expose bias edges which are stretchier than the straight of grain. Try foundation piecing it (also called "paper piecing") if you do this, as that will help stabilize the fabric. A log cabin block is idea for your project, because it can be foundation pieced, it is fairly easy to make, and it is a rustic design. If you use muslin for your foundations, you can just sew the blocks together without any batting or backing. You need to fold the muslin from one side over the joining seam between blocks, tucking the raw edge under, then appliqué it down.
Check the links below for some pictures of log cabin quilts, and instructions on the block.

Any ideas about what I could use to make a RUSTIC, unique shower curtain for my bathroom?
I’ve just redecorated my bathroom to be very RUSTIC. (We live out in the sticks, so it’s appropriate.) I’ve painted it earthtones, and all of the new fixtures are in old barnwood or twig. The soap dispenser is an old Mason jar, etc. For me, the better. I’m trying to think of a great, rustic idea for a shower curtain. I used burlap in another room, so I don’t want to use that again – any other ideas? Ideally something I could use for window treatments would be nice, too. I’ve thrown around the idea of doing a patchwork quilt-looking shower curtain, but I’m not sure if that’s rustic enough.
These are some great ideas for making homemade shower curtains but I always find they are never as good as professionally manufactured shower curtains
