Handmade High Waist Lined Quilt Topper Shorts-Rare 1960s Grandmother's Flower Garden

These shorts are made from a vintage Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt topper that I have lined in 100% Cotton.  There is no batting between the two layers, so I would say this a very light weight quilt. Judging by the fabric and style, I would say this is from the 1960s-1970s. This short features a high waist, and elastic waist band to fit a variety of sizes.
