Sssssssilk.

OH MY YES.


 


Reeled silk in all it's shimmering goodness. Check out the halo.  I can't decide if I want to use this as is or paint it or soak it in a dye bath.  I just want to celebrate it as best I can.  I guess I'll just have to put it in a bowl and admire it for awhile while I decide!  Many thanks to my weaver friend Shelley for passing this on to me to use.  I can't wait to challenge myself by stringing silk onto my loom for the very first time.

How would you choose to work with this bounty?

Happy Making!
