I've incorporated both satiny and silky bridesmaids' fabric into a couple quilts. I backed them with a lightweight fusible interfacing and used them as "regular quilt fabric" with batiks and regular cotton quilt fabric. The only issue I had was with the satiny fabric. You can see the slight bumpiness of the interfacing, but my pieces weren't that large so it was all right.

On my "to do" list is using my daughter's white satin wedding dress fabric to do a whole cloth quilt without the interfacing. Just don't have the nerve to try it yet as the satin shows all the needle holes when I'd have to rip something out.
