There’s a new quilt taking shape on my design wall. It’s for an upcoming SAQA exhibit titled H2Oh!. The theme is ‘Water – it’s everywhere!’ The entry fee is $40 USD for up to three (3) entries, so I’m trying to pull together 3 water-themed quilts. The entry deadline is November 30.
The working title of this modern abstract quilt is ‘Rain’, although I’m toying with ‘Rain with a Chance of Sun’ and ‘Probability of Precipitation’. As always, I’d love to hear your suggestions for other titles!
It was inspired by the bottom fabric, which looks like rainy puddles (I used it for Rainy Day Girls) and the Urban Textures gray ombre fabric that looks like threatening rain clouds. I pieced it yesterday, and plan to quilt it this weekend. I’ll quilt ‘rain’ using my favorite variegated black-white-gray thread that I used for all my Rainy Day People quilts.
Thanks for stopping by. I’m also linking up with these blogs – click on the links below, where you’ll find many other creative and inspirational projects.
Wonderful! I like the probability of precipitation for a name.
This is a nice piece. I see rain in the city, and the slick side of a taxi. Maybe reflections broken up in a window while hiding out from a drenching shower. I like it.
Not good with naming, I can’t add options. But I do like “Rain with a chance of sun.” And I like the quilt.
Probability of precipitation is particularly appropriate today. Another possibility – clearing later in the day.
