Week of Silk

As those of you who read this blog will know, I tend to have occasional "weeks of" and this week I am concentrating on silk in all it's shimmery glory. Unusually, I have invited people to join me, but this has been of mixed utility.. Today was pretty good, however
So, so far, I have made some purses
of which this is a small selection
And some truly tiny blocks

..some of which I have made into a little quilt (approximately 8 inches square) - the blocks are 3 inches before joining and are foundation-pieced on calico

and a degree of mess, of course

Also some book covers, not yet finished, and sundry oddments

And come to a realisation that I may not live long enough to use all this silk at this rate of titchiness
