Hand-woven raw silk fabric

Have just completed hand-weaving a bolt of material using raw silk yarns, with some of the weft yarn being hand-spun.  The short crinkly area is where I tried using three different yarns, hence different shrinkages, but  reverted back to a single weft yarn for the last metre.  The piece is 5.6m long and the first 4.5m  is about 550mm  wide and the last metre 520mm wide.  The first photo shows the entire length of the fabric whilst the second has the fabric doubled over.

You will have to wait to see the  finished garments made using this fabric.  Hopefully they will be on sale at the Perth Upmarket scheduled for Sunday 3 March.
