Default a silk purse not a sows ear...

here is a little silk purse made with a few samples of dupioni silk and some bits of vintage trims I had saved...sewing with dupioni was not hard and quilted up beautifully. This was not handled delicately. I had to rip samples out off a page in a sample book. There was glue and they were machine washed and dried before being trimmed and sewn. Silk is a strong fiber.
