ThIs PomEgrAnAtE BeaUtY..

This beauty was hidden inside another quilt..alot of times I take a risk when bidding on them and tend to look for a listing for a heavy quilt.
It took a while to loosen all the ties etc.from the ratty old wool quilt that was hiding her..but it was well worth it..there were very little worn spots
A simple coloring of double pinks and basic white..off white now that it has aged..I love how the quilting shows up so well with the pale not so busy background..
