Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Ultra Rare 1929 Embroidered Crazy Quilt

Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants- Ultra Rare 1929 Embroidered Crazy Quilt

These pants are made from an Antique Crazy Quilt. I would say this a light weight quilt, as it is set on to an interfacing of feed sacks on the inside, with no batting. Judging by the fabric, feathered  embroidery, and the embroidery of March 4, 1929 in the other pant, I would say this is from the 1920s. 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 :).

Color Scheme: A moody Rainbow assortment of colors and patterns

Approx Age: This quilt was made in the 1920s, handmade recently

Fabric: no tags, But I would say this is a mixture of wool, cotton, silk, even some hand done lace and set onto a cotton feed sack interfacing  on the inside

Condition: Very good wearable condition,  No holes noted, there are several areas that were holes on the outer and into the feed sack that I have patched with pieces left over from the pattern, there is lots and lots of beautiful wear on the outer of this pant, the silk is very shattered, the wool has some holes on the outer, but the velvets and great condition! because of the age of this piece I did my special spot treatment and sun soak for cleaning
