Once I had the pants in hand, looking through them, I tried to picture just how I would use them to construct quilt blocks. Then I remembered this quilt -

- which I received from my mom when she moved into a retirement community. It was in the bottom of a cedar chest in her attic. She could not remember who in our family had made it. It is made of shirt cottons, wool, and flannel. And it has now become the inspiration for the pants quilt -

The fabrics are wool, poly, and corduroy.
