Colonial Lady: Wardrobe & Other Malfunctions

Possibly the most anatomically incorrect
Colonial Lady ever.

Or....a bad wardrobe malfunction

There are many standard versions of this Southern Belle or
Colonial Lady.





 and there's a lot of room for variety
in individual interpretations,







I always say avoid fingers...




And faces




And those strapless tube tops.

    Looks like her Spanx were riding a little high. What a great post. So funny and lots of great memories of these quilts from my girlhood.

    Guess she could not decide which blouse went with the skirt.

    The Southern Belle with the wardrobe malfunction is mine. I'm glad she's getting some attention! I have no clue who made it.
