Quilt Shorts - Feed Sack Postage Stamp

These quilt shorts were made made from a vintage feed sack quilt, from the 1920-30s.

The pattern created for these has been designed to fit a variety of bodies - intentionally boxy with an elastic waistband! see measurements below.

This quilt is light weight, perfect for the summer months.

The quilt has held up very well over time. Always remember that these shorts are made from an antique quilt that has seen decades of love.
