Thai Silk isn't the easiest of fabric, it is a lot "stiffer" than ordinary silk which helps, it can be pressed just select silk on your iron, ordinary silk is almost impossible, you would have to have a very simple pattern not as many seams as this one.

My friend is of to Thailand next week I have asked her to buy me some more I intend to make myself a jacket.
