Black & White second sight - quilting "Time is Running" block (II)

I finished quilting the two versions of my new pattern.


The two tops are washed and are waiting to be transformed in pillow covers.
In my quilting design I assumed I'm weaving canvas pieces.



I used the same thread colors on both versions: black, white and grey, but the two main background colors played their parts in the final different look of each quilt .



The backing is quiet and beautiful like a whole cloth quilt top!

All in all, I like how they came out!
Have you seen the other interpretation of this pattern? Is here, in my past post.

Have a beautiful day, my dears!
Moving on! Time is Running!

Quilting in an autumn day - Time is Running block (I)

It's a cold autumn day and it's raining. The natural light is so poor that I use two lamps while I'm quilting my new patchwork block "Time is Running".
I have made three versions of it: this, this and this. They will become pillows tops.

The gray version is ready.

 
I started with it because its quilting design came up to me first.
I wanted an accurate quilting, so even I new I will use the walking foot, I decided to mark the design onto the fabric top.
I taped the paper design to the window .


Then I taped over the paper the fabric top and copied the design onto the fabric using washable fine-liner pens.


The quilting was fast and easy.


I washed the pillow top and now it looks like this.


I had only one bad surprise: a small portion of a marking line is still visible.

I hope that at the next wash it will disappear.

Now I just finished the second top. After I will wash it, I will show you.

Have a beautiful week, my dears!
