8 Inch Telling Time Clock Face And Color Wheel Movable Hands Minute Intervals Fabric Font Numbers

Telling time has never been more colorful and fun with this clock face printable!

This is a clock face with the color wheel, showing 12 color intervals, for every hour / 5 minute mark.

I wanted to have a more exciting, and catchy way for kids to learn how to tell time, how to know what time the hands represent on an analog clock face. I’m an artist, so I also wanted to show children how colors relate and are on a color wheel.

This lead me to realize, “Hey wait a second – there are 12 basic colors, to simply break them down for a kid, in a color wheel …and there are 12 hours in a day …why not combine the two!”

I wanted to represent the minutes, too, and hopefully, not be too overwhelming for children, in regard to the layout of the numbers and colors. So, I came up with this design concept.

Tell time and have fun with this clock, that also have the color wheel labeled along with the numbers on the clock face, with my Fabric Font numbers, movable hour and minute hands, and minute dash intervals labels around the edge! Move the hands to pick a color and a time!

pdf letter size printable

clock is 8 inches wide in diameter

Supplies:

• paper card stock
• self laminating sheet letter size, Scotch or other brand
• quality hole puncher with wide reach
• brad or 2 buttons plus thread and needle, to hold hands on, and allow to be movable

If you don’t use a brad…

There are hands for the longer minute and shorter hour hands, that you can cut out, poke a hole / hole punch the center, and attach to the clock face, by hole punching the white center dot with an awl or pencil / pen, or I use Fiskars non-stick crafting embroidery size scissors for papercrafts. You can then either:

• Snip a straw down to 1/4″ to 1/2″, and slide through the hole of the clock face, then slide the minute then hour hands over the straw through the holes, then place a button on top, then glue both, or sew on with thread and a needle
• Take 2 buttons, sew through one button, leaving tail long enough to bring the other end through when finished, to tie off and knot, thread through clock center white dot hole, place hands on top, sewing / threading through holes, then sew a button on top, sew several times through 2 or 4 holes securely, then bring needle and thread back though the holes in the layers of the button, hands, clock face, and bottom button, tie off and knot.

Colors

There are 3 sets of colors:

• primary: blue, red, yellow
• secondary: purple, orange, and green
• tertiary: blue violet (iris or indigo), red violet (orchid, neon purple, some call it magenta), red orange (tomato), yellow orange (sunburst, tumeric), yellow green (chartreuse), and blue green (aqua, teal, ocean blue)

Fabric Font

Oh, and for the numbers, I felt it different to introduce my Fabric Font numbers for the hour / 5 minute marks! I created a logo for my business, Fabricated Frames, in 2000, making simulated lengths of fabric, drawn, to form letters, numbers, and now other characters, 110 characters, including all 94 characters and space on the keyboard, plus 20 symbols, for word art. The Fabric Font is available to buy, download, and install on apps that allow you to change the font! In otf or open type face style. Custom names, word art, tags / captions, and/or card / invite printables available upon request. 8 Inch Clock / Color Wheel design, download, printable, & Fabric Font copyright protected 2000 by Kristie Hubler.

You can also print this onto a washable, inkjet printer fabric sheet, and back with iron on interfacing, and another layer of fabric for backing, back sides facing out, sew along outer edge of clock face, leaving an opening big enough for your hand to pull and turn the piece inside out, but turn inside out after you snipped the seam allowance ever 1/4″ around, or the thickness of your thumb, stopping right before the stitch line. Turn piece out, sew opening shut, press with iron, then sew a finished stitch edge around the piece. Hole punch the center white dot, where the interfacing, Therm o Web HeatnBond is good for interfacing, seals the fabric, keeping it from fraying.

I hope that your kids enjoy this clock, and learn in a fun way!

Thank you!
