Clock Noir

Clock Noir - This was the result of a guild challenge, "Black and white and whatever all over" using one of the fabrics. The rest came from my stash. I scanned in the pictures from old film noir movies, drew the clock in PhotoShop, and scanned in some of my fabric to get different sizes. All were printed on muslin. The clock numbers are machine satin stitched in red, and the clockworks added, with the second hand painted red. My favorite part is the quilting on Humphrey Bogart's face.
