Doesn't sound like a quilt topic exactly but bumper stickers are fun and I'm looking for one or more funnies to give me the theme for a new quilt. Please....PM me with yout favorite so they'll all be in one place---and not in my overloaded email box! I appreciate you for taking the time to do this!!!! All sticker sayings welcome!

Here are some of my favorites:

1. I'm spending my kid's inheritance

2. Re-Elect NO ONE

3. Taxi Mom

4. Kids on board

5. Pets on board

6. If you can read this -- You're too damn close!

I have brainfade and cannot recall any off the top of my head (and at 4:47 AM - yep - insomnia), but I will be on the lookout and will send you all that I see this weekend that I think are amusing. Sounds like a fun thing to do, and I have a lot of errands to accomplish, so I would expect to see one or two that make me chuckle, I would hope. Happy weekend.

My former car had "The most violent element of society is ignorance" and this one has "Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup"

mom-6 08-28-2010 05:54 AM

Moonpi - Love the dragon one!

"Quilters do it around the block"

Not quilting, but "If you can read this, I can slam on my brakes and sue you."

lauriejo 08-28-2010 06:31 AM

I don't know if this would work for a quilt theme, "Honk if you love Jesus, text if you want to meet him"

nena 08-28-2010 06:45 AM

lauriejo, I cracked up when I read that. But how true.

That might be a little funnier if sewer (person who sews) and sewer (place where your toilet flushings go) weren't spelled the same

lynnie 08-28-2010 07:21 AM

love them

trif 08-28-2010 07:30 AM

Brakes at all quilt shops

Life is simple, eat, sleep quilt (that is what is around my license plate)

Quilters do it on every block.

paintstoregirl 08-28-2010 08:03 AM

I had one on a car that I no longer own that said "Will work for fabric" with a quilt block beside it.

Pam 08-28-2010 08:15 AM

Blessed are the children of the Piecemakers, for they shall inherit the quilts.

Theresa 08-28-2010 08:18 AM

Had a license frame that said "BEWARE - Crazy Quilter". Unfortunately the frame was slightly too big for the license and stickers we have in Oregon, so had to abandon the frame. Ohhh, it was fun tho!

dphelps 08-28-2010 08:31 AM

I have always liked the one my mom had hanging in her sewing room "the one who dies with the most stash wins".

On the back of a car being towed by a huge Motor Home:
I go where I'm towed!

BellaBoo 08-28-2010 11:17 AM

One of our couple friends have what I call a mini yacht. The guy had Poverty Sucks painted on it to look like a bumper sticker. LOL

HELLuvvANGEL 08-28-2010 11:59 AM

Quilting Nonnie 08-28-2010 12:35 PM

Our neighbor, a former Marine, has a bumper sticker which says:

Marines: When it absolutely, positively has to be destroyed overnight.

(I have kids in the Army)

What if the Hokey Pokey IS what it's all about?

Margie 08-28-2010 12:44 PM

I owe, I owe, so off to work I go. (saw this on a car that was rusty and rickety lol.

My other car is a BMW (on an old punchbuggy lol

Margie 08-28-2010 12:45 PM

This is not a bumper sticker but saw a guy on motorcycle and on the back of his shirt it said

If you can read this, the bitch fell off.

OMG -- I LOVE that one!! :lol: :lol:

stitchingmemories 08-28-2010 01:14 PM

Sorry nothing quilt related. The only bumper sticker that stuck in my tiny little grey matter was......"I may be fat but you're ugly and I can diet". haha people are so grouchy these days!

hazeljane 08-28-2010 01:36 PM

My car always has bumper sticker on it.

The one that stays the same says:
"HATE is not a family value."

Others revolve. there is usually an iggy (Italian Greyhound) sticker. This one says "Get Iggy with it"

and another is a Gandhi quote:
" I like your Christ.
I do not like your Christians.
They are so unlike your Christ."

(Sometimes folks around here need reminding of what are really Christian values...)

MomtoBostonTerriers 08-28-2010 01:39 PM

"Your mother was pro-life."


"When you go to war, remember to wear your brown pants."


"If you can read this, thank a teacher.
If you can read this in English, thank a soldier."

Auntie M 08-28-2010 01:40 PM

not a bumper sticker - but saw a license plate "wuzhiz" on a corvette.

SewinSue 08-28-2010 01:58 PM

My bro sent this one to me. "Quiltabeast Caution: Will stampede at the sight of a fabric sale." www.quarterinchpublishing.com I believe this company has a copyright on it but I thought it was hilarious! Sue

lindyline 08-28-2010 02:26 PM

Not a quilt related one, but funny,
pull the wrinkles out of your face, go braless.

MadQuilter 08-28-2010 02:29 PM

I know you can't use this one, but it is the only one that sticks in my mind: "What if the whole world fartet at once?" Not sure WHY anyone would put that on their car.

Oh, then there is "A bad day fishing is better than a good day at work." That could be quilt-verted.

Marge L. 08-28-2010 02:50 PM

A neighbor down the hall has this sign on her door, "Welcome to the house of poverty".

cbridges22 08-28-2010 03:49 PM

Not all who wander are lost....

bjnicholson 08-28-2010 03:52 PM

The sign on our front door says, "Friends welcome. Family by appointment only." Under the fishing rod and fish!

sueisallaboutquilts 08-28-2010 04:17 PM

These are really good! I love funny ones but not crazy about political or religious ones even if I agree with them.
But I love that Gandhi quote- awesome!!
