Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Ultra Rare 1910s Checkered
Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Ultra Rare 1910s Checkered
These pants are made from an Antique Checkered Quilt. I would say this a medium weight quilt and I believe it’s all wool. Judging by the fabric and style , I would say this is from the 1910s-1920s, it is actually the sister Quilt of the gray and black checkered pants, they were sewn together with one piece being the top and the other piece the back. 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 :).
