Features or notes about the quilt's appearance, materials, or construction:

Artist's statement: Inspiration comes from the Japanese saying of "see no evil, hear no evil and speak no evil." I used some over-dyed seersucker cotton as my background fabric with some vinyl window screen, Tyvek, and polyester sparkling organza. I also included some photo transfers that I changed some of them by making the sepia tone to add age. I did some distressing of organza by burning.
