Handmade Quilt Skirt- 1950s Checkered

Handmade Quilt Skirt- 1950s Checkered

This skirt is made from a vintage scalloped trim checkered skirt. When it was found, it had several stains and tears, so why not use the good parts for a skirt:) There a cotton batting between the two layers, but I would say this a light weight quilt. Judging by the fabric and style, and that is it all hand stitched, I would say this is from the 1950s. This skirt features an elastic waist band to fit a variety of sizes
