I would like to caution you about one thing. Silk ravels terribly! I would use the smallest stitches possible or maybe even use a tiny bit of FrayCheck on the very edges of the seams. I had a quilt made of beautiful Indian sarees and sari borders and it came apart at the seams before it was ever washed.
Thanks for the tip on the fray check and stitch length.
