Sunday Quilt Inspiration: C L O C K S

Singer's Clock Clydebank from the sewing machine factory roof. My grand father worked in Singer.:

from "The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock" by T. S. Eliot

There will be time, there will be time 
To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet; 

Watch is also a noun which reminds me of time and old. www.rubylane.com: DIY Treasure Clock (this was one of many table markers/keepsakes for a wedding.. the time is the table number, and the couples pics are inside the book):

Make an abstract clock by inserting an art paper in it’s background.:

There will be time to murder and create, 
And time for all the works and days of hands 
That lift and drop a question on your plate; 

Featuring a heavily distressed blue and brown finish, this delightful wall clock is perfect over a mantel or on your gallery wall.   ...:

Time for you and time for me, 

Lenzkirch, Germany, model 676 "The Little Mermaid", walnut wall clock with profuse bronze decorations, 8 days, time and gong strike, serial #1Million, 219,792, c1899: so pop art...so googie style:

And time yet for a hundred indecisions, 
And for a hundred visions and revisions, 
Before the taking of a toast and tea. 

A stylish wall is only a matter of time! Try turning back the clock with one of these vintage designs.:

"J Alfred Prufrock" is one of my favorite poems. Its depth is such that I find something new with each read, and I've taught it surely over 100 times over the years. It is truly a classic that is timeless (pun intended).
