gorgeous hand dyed silk
2 1/2" or 4" wide, one yard
beautiful fresh green and yes reminds me of fresh cut hay - it might be a little more muted in person than some of my photos
please note the hand dyed nature of this silk~mottling, marbling, light and dark areas are all natural with hand dyeing
very light weight silk
*This silk is cut on the bias and will have random seams. Not color fast
Many fabrics and silks are cut on the bias, this gives it some stretch and strength-it does not effect the quality of the silk, in fact it is the opposite-many times it makes the silk hang or lay smoother than it would if it wasn't cut on the bias.
I sell thousands of yards of silk that are cut on the bias-both in my interior design work and through my ribbon shop and they all work perfectly for bouquets, sashes, invitations and just about anything you can think of.
If working with a silk that is cut on the bias is an issue-let me know and I will send you links of other options we have. All of our hand dyed silks are on the bias.*****Please note that our hand dyed silks are not 100% color fast ~ meaning that they might bleed dye when wet. I recommend soaking 12-24 hours in temperate water, softly wring out (repeat process with fresh water until water is clear) then lay flat to dry. If you want the silk wrinkle free, lightly press on a very low setting (test a small area first) on the reverse side (also can place a lightweight piece of fabric between iron and silk) *********
