Sewing with natural silk can be a little intimidating. That’s why we’ve set aside a selection of silk fabrics just for beginning sewers. These are genuine silk fabrics in sturdy weaves that stay beautifully put when you cut. They won’t evade your scissors or squirm off the table, so even those with little experience sewing silk fabric can work wonders with them. They are just perfect for some of our sewing projects with step by step tutorials like a how to sew pillow cover, which will reward you with a magic cosmetic pillow your skin and hair will thank you for. We also have a great tutorial on how to sew curtains, or how to sew and a simple shift dress.
