Various Fabrics embellished with buttons and lace; pieced, appliquèd, smocked, and hand quilted; 81 x 82 inches.
Ms. Saka wrote: "I used luminous fabrics to express the mysterious scent and beautiful transparent colors of charming perfume bottles. Cording enhances the sense of perspective in the center of the work and the pearl buttons in the smocked border give the work a wonderful visual appeal."
