Handmade Super High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Rare 50s Grandmother's Flower Garden

Handmade Super High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Rare 50s Grandmother's Flower Garden

These pants are made from a vintage quilt. When it was found, the center was ripped up, so why no use the good parts to make pants :) It has some batting in between the layers but its very light, so I would say this is a light weight quilt. This piece is all hand stitched and judging by the style and the flour sack fabric, I would say this is from the 1940s-1950s. It is made from a vintage palazzo pant pattern and features a super wide leg and elastic waistband to fit a variety of sizes.
