A bunch of us participated in the 2009 Artful Bra Project. Artists were asked to make a bra to be auctioned off to raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness. I altered this bra in honor of a friend named "Sun" who died of breast cancer last year. She absolutely embodied her name, so I chose a yellow polka dotted bra to start and embellished it with all things that reminded me of her: daisies, sand castles, fish, ice cream cones, blingy slippers, sassy sunglasses, smiley faces, etc. The title came quite naturally--"Sunshine On My Shoulders." I think Sun would have loved it and, she would have been shocked to learn that her bra raised about $2000!
