March 2006 Challenge: Clocks! (Page 2)

"Design a clock. It could be for a quilt or for some other completely different medium. It could be for a real project or one that is completely fantasy." - Barb Vlack

It´s 5 Minutes Before...

Had a friend in mind to make this one for.
I traced out the boots, wagon wheel, and clock hands. Used embroidery motifs for the saddle, steer, hat, and kerchief.

Big Spring, TX

My family is spread over the world so we need to be able to calculate the time for telephone calls .I have a world clock that my stepson gave me soon after his father and I were married. It is a great conversation piece as well as useful. It is digital so it doesn't look at all like this, but it gave me the idea.

I thought of this clock as being surrounded by tiles. The numbers on our kitchen clock change orientation as these do. It has a mosaic around the clock and is much smaller than this.

It´s the clock of our earth.

My Clock

I was thinking that time is well represented by growing things and this just kind of grew on its own.

I can think of no better way to pass time than spending it in the garden.

More flowers and time. I guess I'm ready for spring <LOL>.

Created for the March 2006 EQ5 Club Challenge: "Design a clock"

Custom layout with centered Female Symbol (created in Patch Draw).

Superimposed letters and numerals on Layer 2 are from EQ5 Motif Library.

"Diamond" border in interior mimics an hourglass shape. "Tile on Point" for outside border utilizes "Hourglass Puzzle" block from EQ5 Library.

Houston, Texas, USA

This is the first time I have done anything like this and it was a real challenge for me. I have certainly learnt a lot from this exercise.

I fell in love with Dali paintings when I visited the Salvador Dali museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.

I learned a lot designing this quilt. I traced bitmaps of all the numerals and the clock hands. This was great fun.

Dresden Plate block, Robert Kaufman EQ5 fabrics, motif numbers and hands.

A pretty standard looking clock but more colorful than usual.

In Dali's Style

Batiks. Tile type border inspired by Barb Vlack's example. Drunkard's path blocks for clock face; motif numbers.

We built a family room onto our house when I was growing up, and my Father put a clock like this (backwards, right down to the mechanism) on the wall. His was just the hands and the numbers. This challenge made me smile as I remembered that.

Tallahassee, FL

 

 

I took my inspiration from one of Salvador Dali's painting. When I did a mirror image of one of the clock , the numbers went backward. In Dali's style it will be just fine, so I didn't correct them and I left the quilt just as it is.

Except for the hands of the clock, the clock block was created entirely with wreathmaker using blocks from the EQ library.

Brockport, New York

This clock is made from block 4013 from Block Base. I modified it slightly. The numbers are my own tracings learned from Patti R. Anderson's book "EQ Drawing".

Here I've modified another block from Block Base, 3522 "Letha´s Electric Fan". I fell in love with the uneven form of the block. This one I'll try to work some more on.

This is my first entry into the Club EQ Challenge. It provided an excellent learning opportunity -- tracing bitmaps to create the center block. Making this quilt would be an even greater challenge, it's a good thing that one of the rules is that there is "no sewing required"!

I imagined the tile clock set in a cork surround.

I used paperpiecing blocks to design my clock quilt. I lose all track of time in the garden and thought this might be "my" style of clock quilt.
