These skeletons have buttons for their elbows and knees. They are made of bone, and the original use was for underwear. Before elastic was invented, from what I've learned. From skivvies to a quilt; bet the guy, or gal, whose drawers these belonged to would be surprised.

Happy Halloween!
Here is probably my favorite quilt of those that I've made. This was a Red Wagon pattern in the early 90s. I remember running out of the red background fabric, as I was fairly new to quilting I didn't know to buy a lot even if you need a little! The quilt is the better for having two different background fabrics, I think.

The quilt is full of character! Very cute!!
This quilt is so whimsical! Which book is it in? Thanks for sharing it.
I don't remember this Red Wagon quilt pattern. But it is a good one! I have all the Red Wagon books and patterns I could find.
Marge, this was an individual pattern, but I believe that it was later in one of their books. Hope this helps.
