Take a good look at this quilt. Click on it. It’s called The Sun Sets on Sunbonnet Sue. I particularly like the snake.

On to Bra’s -
I recently received a reply to my comment about a person who told me that if she can’t find her bra she knows that it will be in the back seat of her car. My mind went wild with the idea of how someones bra could continuously be found in the back seat on ones car. Here is the response -
“Oh! dear, where is your mind? I knew she meant she took it off and threw it over her shoulder when she was caught in traffic at a red light. Many a time I’ve wanted to do just that. ”
Here is my side. If I where to try to take my bra off in the car, especially with the limited time of a red light, it would look like I was wrestling a grizzly bear. I got big boobs. I can’t get my bra off very fast. Also, if I where to exit my car bra-less my nipples would freeze hanging out below the hem of my t-shirt.
Very funny quilt! I have never been a fan of Sunbonnet Sue – this really tickled me!
Ok I am the one who loses her bra in the backseat and pretty much that is how i do it, but usually as soon as I get in the car and before I leave work.
And I to am blessed with ample bossom but I guess practice makes perfect!! LOL
Also, if I where to exit my car bra-less my nipples would freeze hanging out below the hem of my t-shirt.
…but your face would look twenty year younger…lol
I am laughing so hard.
Oh. My. GOD! I have always hated Sunbonnet Sue, and this quilt is the funniest thing I have ever seen!!! It should be a shrine! lol!
And the bra thing…I glad that happens to other people, too.
thanks for the good, so very good laughs. The bra dialogue has been priceless!
When I was pregnant I never found a bra that fit. On the way home from work I would take it off in the car when traffic forced me to stop. That was UNTIL I got to work one morning and an older gentleman I worked with mentioned he saw me on my way home the night before. He said he tried to get my attention until he saw my brassiere being flung across the car. He got a good laugh at it and it was a month before I could look him in the eye!!!
This is the best quilt i have ever seen. Similar to one of your commenter, sunbonnet sue was never one of my favorite applique item and this is a perfect depiction of it. As for the bra, i would never be successful in taking it off during a quick red light stop.
