Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants-Ultra Rare 1940s Butterfly

Handmade High Waist Quilt Palazzo Pants-Ultra Rare 1940s Butterfly

These pants are made from a vintage Butterfly Quilt.  I would say this a light to medium weight quilt. Since I had very limited fabric, while I'm still putting this under my umbrella of Palazzo pant, I would say this is a more slim leg. Judging by the fabric, style, and that it is all hand-stitched, I would say this is from the 1950s-1960s. 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 :).
