These are all adorable ideas & it's so sweet of you to plan to do something like this!
|
What a creative group! WOW!
|
I can see snowflakes in rows of rainbow colors appliqued over a lovely winter (blue/grey/white scene) but I would keep the intensity of the colors low so they don't overpower.

Great ideas and all headed in the same direction just little adjustments in each

This rainbow brainstorming is fun on a humid day in May! We're all singing a rainbow along with you!!
I see a rainbow in pale pastels of colors, the usual rainbow order-- ROYGBIV-- arching from behind pine trees on the left down to a snowman on the right with a big pot of silver and gold stars in front of him. Maybe you could applique a representation of the building where you pay the bill behind him in the scene? Or maybe take a photo of the place, and use the photo transfer sheets to get that building in your quilt. Then I would quilt it really wintery -- with low mares tail clouds, long swoopy tendrils of blowing wind, a few snowflakes flying, and maybe some tracks in the snow. Please let us see what you end up doing. Remember the Andy Williams' song? I am humming it now. Red and yellow and Pink and Green Purple and orange and blue I can sing a rainbow Sing a rainbow Sing a rainbow too Listen with your eyes Listen with your ears And sing everything you see I can sing a rainbow Sing a rainbow Sing along with me. |
I saw a snowbow once, as a blizzard was leaving the spot I was. The sky was purplish-black, and the rainbow colors really stood out! It was crazy, have never seen another one.

Look what I ran across today....hmmmmm. Snowflakes instead of stars?
