| "July is the month of patriotism for America, but the red, white, and blue color scheme can be used by anyone, anywhere. Design a quilt with these three focus colors. Use tints or shades or various fabrics if you desire. You may even challenge yourself to use these colors in a way that does _not_ say 'American flag'." |

Fireworks! This quilt was inspired by watching the fireworks displays on July 1st (Canada Day) and July 4th (U.S.A. Independence Day). I found the main blocks using the search feature with the words "Fireworks" & "Chrysanthemum". I then adapted the stars from the "Fireworks" block for one of the border blocks and for the centre of the sashing blocks. The larger border block is 1/4 of the "Chrysanthemum" block. For my fabrics I chose "Celestials" by Hoffman to represent the dark blue of the night sky, "Essentials" by Hoffman for the sparks of red in the fireworks, and "Texture" by Jennifer Sampou for the fireworks light against the night sky.
