    WOW!!! Great silk!!! How about a whole fabric quilt for the panel and border it with something simple made out of the others?

    I'd like that against my skin too - and the scraps will go into a crazy quilt pillow to lounge on.

    So beautiful! My DD brought me some silky fabrics from Nepal and I don't know what to do with them either. I don't want to cut them!

    What absolutely gorgeous fabric!! I can certainly see how you wouldn't want to cut it up, but it would make a beautiful robe and sexy nightie.
