Rain, rain, vote away... Vote for your favorite rain fabrics

In keeping with the spirit of April -- at least here in North Carolina -- we've got a veritable deluge of rain fabrics for you to admire in the contest this week: 362 of them, to be precise.

Vote for as many as you like, or take umbrage if you prefer. There are a whole bunch of these fabrics that I think are amazing.
