Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants-Ultra Rare 1860s Flour Sack Lancaster Rose Variant

Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants-Ultra Rare 1860s Flour Sack Lancaster Rose Variant

These pants are made from an antique Flour Sack Lancaster Rose Variant Quilt that I have added an antique Calico Monkey Wrench Quilt Trim to, to give her a full leg. The only time I’ve ever seen this pattern was in a MUSEUM! I would say this a light weight quilt. Judging by the fabric, style, and that it is all hand stitched, I would say this is from the 1860s-1880s. This pant is made from a vintage palazzo pant pattern and features a wide leg, high waist, and elastic waist band to fit a variety of sizes. It also has inseam pockets for maximum comfort and utility :).

Approx Age: This quilt was probably made in the 1860s-1880s, handmade recently
