Years ago Greenfairy did a silk all over with silk thread. The client was the owner of Superior threads and she made a jacket of it. She posted it here a long time ago. I am sure if you search here or her blog you can find it. I don't recall her saying she had any issues. I am thinking as long as you take your time loading and making sure everything is smooth and wrinkle free, do a little test stitch on the side you should be fine.
