Artist Statement: Fireworks in Color(ado) was developed by using a 4 x 5” section of my prior quilt of an abstract guitar shape.  The quilt was designed improvisationally by enlarging and filling in the new areas with many colored shapes of what I call “starbursts.”  These are pieces shaped like the “starburst” quilting design that I created years ago and frequently use in my quilting.
