Hello and welcome from Germany!
|
I love your avatar square that you made from silk. I would love to have a silk crazy quilt, but wouldn't silk be a hard fabric to work with?
|
Lovely profile.

welcome!

welcome from so mo

I don't think it was too difficult. However the cotton drapery fabric I am quilting now IS difficult. I have actually broken 3 needles quilting this one.
I think it depends on the tightness of the weave and the thickness of the individual threads of the fabric. Silk can be very light and pliable. Most of the samples I have are from India and are light-weight. Also, they are solids or stripes without any embroidery or over-weaves. I'll let you know! |

Finally figured out today how to add a photo. This was a square I made for another quilter in the group I belong to so I no longer have it. I have since been collecting silk pieces for a silk crazy quilt. I used to get a lot of designer upholstery samples where I work and think I have enough for a comfortably-sized lap quilt. Wish me luck! |
