Handmade Super High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Rare 60s Grandmother's Flower Garden
Handmade Super High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Rare 60s Grandmother's Flower Garden
These pants are made from a vintage Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt. When it was found, had lots of holes, so why not use the good parts for pants:) There is a light batting between the two layers, so I would say this a very light to medium weight quilt. Judging by the fabric, style, and that is was all hand stitched, I would say this is from the 1960s-1970s. This pant is made from a vintage palazzo pant pattern and features a super wide leg and elastic waist band to fit a variety of sizes
