@sewblue I got to meet my great grandmother only one time. It was on my grandparents' ranch in the desert of Durango MX when I was very young. She dressed just like this. I was told she dressed like this every day after her husband passed until she passed as well.

@sewblue scrolled past it a couple of times now, this really creeps me out over and over again. Maybe I watched too many horror movies, but the imagination plays crazy seeing this
